Yes.

1) Set up your survey to use JavaScript.

2) Add the following script to the source of the question. Replace "QQ" with the questionquestion ID.

If the text input is empty the script loads it with the token value.

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
 
	$(document).ready(function(){
 
		var qID = QQ;
 
		if($('#question'+qID+' input.text').val() == '') {
 
			$('#question'+qID+' input.text').val('{TOKEN:ATTRIBUTE_1}');
		}
 
	});
 
</script>

Cheers,
Tony

TMSWhite OFFLINE LimeSurvey Team Posts: 751 Thank you received: 77 Karma: 33	tpartner- This seems like another common request that the equation parser and Issue #5104 might be able to help with. The way I've done this in the past was to create hidden Equation questions which could set the value of other variables (e.g. set default values for answers). /tom

Hello,

I have a multiple short text question. I'd like to prepopulate some of the fields with data from the token list. I have tried this but have not been able to make it work.

This is the script I'm using

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">

$(document).ready(function(){

var qID = 8568SQ001;

if($('#question'+qID+' input.text').val() == '') {

$('#question'+qID+' input.text').val('{TOKEN:ATTRIBUTE_1}');
}

});

</script>

8568 is the question ID and SQ001 is the code for the first option in the multiple short text question. Is it possible to make this work on this type of question?

thanks
