Here is an updated version if the script that should handle both types of multiple-choice.

Code:

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">    
 
  $(document).ready(function() {
 
    // Identify this question
    var thisQuestion = $('#question{QID}');
 
    // Add some classes
    $('.question-item:not(:last)', thisQuestion).addClass('non-exclusive-item');
    $('.question-item:last', thisQuestion).addClass('exclusive-item');
 
    // Handle exclusive items
    $('input.checkbox', thisQuestion).on('change', function(e) {
      if($(this).is(':checked')) {
        var actionItems = $('.non-exclusive-item', thisQuestion);
        if($(this).closest('.question-item').hasClass('non-exclusive-item')) {
          actionItems = $('.exclusive-item', thisQuestion);
        }
        actionItems.each(function(i) {
          $('input.checkbox', this).prop('checked', false).trigger('change');
          $('input:hidden', this).attr('value', '');
          $('input[type="text"]', this).val('').trigger('keyup');
        });
      }
    });
 
  });
</script>

I have tried using this script in version 2.6.7-lts Build 171212 and it doesn’t work. Is there an updated code that will?

Hi, tixeon,

In the first post of this thread you see that it is about the 2.50-2.73 branch.

You work with the older 2.06 branch, which was renamed - to confuse some users - to 2.6.x

So you cannot expect the script to work.

Best regards
Joffm

I have tried using this script in version 2.6.7-lts Build 171212 and it doesn’t work.

I just tested and it does work in 2.06 LTS. Can you attach a small sample survey containing only the affected question?

        $('input[type="text"]', thisQuestion).val('');
      }
    });
 
  });
</script>

Just tested these workarounds and, unfortunately, they do not work anymore in LS 3.7.

I'm using the latest LS 3.22 hosted on LS servers, not installed locally.

Try changing all instances of 'input.checkbox' to 'input [type="checkbox"]'

Tried to change it in both lines where it is, but it didn't solve it.

Sorry, I am away this week with only a phone so can't debug any further.

This will work in 3.x:

Code:

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">    
 
  $(document).ready(function() {
 
    // Identify this question
    var thisQuestion = $('#question{QID}');
 
    // Add some classes
    $('.question-item:not(:last)', thisQuestion).addClass('non-exclusive-item');
    $('.question-item:last', thisQuestion).addClass('exclusive-item');
 
    // Handle exclusive items
    $('input[type="checkbox"]', thisQuestion).on('change', function(e) {
      if($(this).is(':checked')) {
        var actionItems = $('.non-exclusive-item', thisQuestion);
        if($(this).closest('.question-item').hasClass('non-exclusive-item')) {
          actionItems = $('.exclusive-item', thisQuestion);
        }
        actionItems.each(function(i) {
          $('input[type="checkbox"]', this).prop('checked', false).trigger('change');
          $('input:hidden', this).attr('value', '');
          $('input[type="text"]', this).val('').trigger('keyup');
        });
      }
    });
    $('input[type="text"]', thisQuestion).on('keyup change', function(e) {
      var thisInput = $(this);
      setTimeout(function() {
        $(thisInput).closest('.question-item').find('input[type="checkbox"]').trigger('change');
      }, 200);
    });
 
  });
</script>

Hi Tony,

for your script:

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

$(document).ready(function() {

// Identify this question
var thisQuestion = $('#question{QID}');

// Add some classes
$('.question-item:not(:last)', thisQuestion).addClass('non-exclusive-item');
$('.question-item:last', thisQuestion).addClass('exclusive-item');

// Handle exclusive items
$('input.checkbox', thisQuestion).on('change', function(e) {
if($(this).is(':checked')) {
var actionItems = $('.non-exclusive-item', thisQuestion);
if($(this).closest('.question-item').hasClass('non-exclusive-item')) {
actionItems = $('.exclusive-item', thisQuestion);
}
actionItems.each(function(i) {
$('input.checkbox', this).prop('checked', false).trigger('change');
$('input:hidden', this).attr('value', '');
$('input[type="text"]', this).val('').trigger('keyup');
});
}
});

});
</script>

Is there a way to handle two exclusive options???

Thanks and best regards
Andrea

This script will render the last two items exclusive:

Code:

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">    
 
  $(document).ready(function() {
 
    // Identify this question
    var thisQuestion = $('#question{QID}');
 
    // Add some classes
    var sqCount = $('.question-item', thisQuestion).length;
    $('.question-item', thisQuestion).addClass('non-exclusive-item');
    $('.question-item:eq('+(sqCount-2)+')', thisQuestion).removeClass('non-exclusive-item').addClass('exclusive-item'); // 2nd last item
    $('.question-item:eq('+(sqCount-1)+')', thisQuestion).removeClass('non-exclusive-item').addClass('exclusive-item'); // Last item
 
    // Handle exclusive items
    $('input[type="checkbox"]', thisQuestion).on('change', function(e) {
      if($(this).is(':checked')) {
        var thisItem = $(this).closest('.question-item');
        var actionItems = $('.question-item', thisQuestion).not($(thisItem));
        if($(thisItem).hasClass('non-exclusive-item')) {
          actionItems = $('.exclusive-item', thisQuestion);
        }
        actionItems.each(function(i) {
          $('input[type="checkbox"]', this).prop('checked', false).trigger('change');
          $('input:hidden', this).attr('value', '');
          $('input[type="text"]', this).val('').trigger('keyup');
        });
      }
    });
    $('input[type="text"]', thisQuestion).on('keyup change', function(e) {
      var thisInput = $(this);
      setTimeout(function() {
        $(thisInput).closest('.question-item').find('input[type="checkbox"]').trigger('change');
      }, 200);
    });
 
  });
</script>
