Hello! I've problem with designing questions.

I've 1.90+ Build 9459 version. I have a array-multi-flexi-text mandatory question with 2 columns (City, Number of people in City) and 5 rows (1, 2, 3, 4, 5). I want to have a default answer in all of the input text fields in this question (for example 'NONE').

My question is: how can I do this? I've looked into Default values in array questions topic and there is a solution but only for checked/unchecked radio buttons.

Can anyone help me?

There is no setting for default answers in array-multi-flexi-text inputs but you can use JavaScript to cheat.

Set up your survey to use JavaScript and place the following script in the source of the array question or the group description. Replace "QQ" (line 5) with the ID of the array question and modify the default value (line 6) as necessary.
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
 
    $(document).ready(function() {
 
        var qID = QQ;
        var  defaultVal = 'None';
 
        // Loop text inputs and load default value
        $('#question'+qID+' input[type="text"]').each(function(i) {
 
            if (!$(this).val()) {
                $(this).val(defaultVal);
            }
        });
 
    });
 
</script>
Cheers,
Tony
