Introduction
In order to let the respondent specify an open text for Other option
As a questionnaire creator
I want to show a textbox next to "Other" text in a grid question
Example
Solution
Assuming that I have a single grid question labeled Q1, and I need to show the open text box in 3rd sub question (0-index)
Make the "Other" sub question NOT required
Create a dummy text question labeled Q1_Other
Add a piece of javascript to Q1
var errorMessage = "Please specify the open text";
var subQuestionIndex = 3;//0-based
quest.onInit = function()
{
$("#grid_subquestion_text_"+ (subQuestionIndex+1)).append($("<input name='QUESTION.Q1_Other'>").val("{{Q1_Other}}"));
}
var oldCheck = questioncheck;
questioncheck = function()
{
if (!oldCheck())
return false;
if ($("input:radio[name='QUESTION.Q1."+ subQuestionIndex + "'][checked=true]").length != 0)
{
if ($("input[name='QUESTION.Q1_Other']").val() == "")
{
ErrorMessages.getInstance().showErrorMessage(errorMessage);
return false;
}
}
return true;
}
Add a CGScript to Q1_Other to remove double quotes
if (Q1_Other == empty)
return;
Q1_Other = stringReplace(Q1_Other, "\"", "'");
