Can you please explain in more detail ("require a specification"?!

Please check manual -> question attributes and manual -> Setting Conditions.

Hi !

In my question, I ask where people live :
A) House
Apartment
C) Room
D) Residence
E) Other

I would like to require that persons who select «other» specify where they live before going to the next question. Actually, they can choose other, then go to the next question without filling the blank.

How can this be done ?

Thanks.

Hi Mademoiselle,

You can set conditions for the next question:
If the respondent chose "Other" than the next question asks more specifications.
If the respondent did not choose "Other", then the specifications question is skipped.

Read more about setting conditions:
http://docs.limes.../tiki-index.ph...e=Setting+Conditions
I hope this is what you needed.
Good luck!
hans

Conditions are the best way to handle this. Set the free text question to non-mandatory if the user doesn't ave to answer this question.
