As a questionnaire creator
I want to hide the Next button in some seconds

quest.onInit = function() { var secsTimeout = 10;

if ( !document.getElementsByName('next') || document.getElementsByName('next').length == 0 ) { // next button not available return; } else { document.getElementsByName('next')[0].style.display='none'; }

var timeout = setTimeout("document.getElementsByName('next')[0].style.display=;", secsTimeout*1000);
