Drop box was created by adridg
I have a drop box question with numbers as answer.
Each number is related to a person´s name.
I want that, when a number is choosen in the drop box list, the name related will appear.
Is that possibel?
Thanks

Could it be in the same question, but not in the drop box. Like an text with the name.
Or in the next question. Wuld be like an validation, if the person choose the correct number.
I hope now is clear...

Hello, aldridg,
Always the same: The Buzzword is "Tayloring".
manual.limesurvey.org/Expression_Manager...swers.2C_and_Reports

Just include in the question text something like this:

{if(Q1==1,"Hi, Angela, nice to see you",if(Q1==2,"Hi, Bert, nice to see you",if(Q1==3,"Hi, Carmen, nice to see you",if(Q1==4,"Hi, Dan, nice to see you",if(Q1==5,"Hi, Eileen, nice to see you",if(Q1==6,"Hi, Fred, nice to see you",""))))))}



and then


Of course you are free to include this in a different page.

I did this, but apparently i´m missing something:
when i did with the first question as drop box, the names did not appear.
when I change the drop box question to short free text, it works
what am i doing wrong?
thank you

Hello, adridg,

where is your sample survey?

How can we know what you are doing wrong or what you are missing?

Best regards
Joffm

Hello, adridg,
Your test was against the text of the answer option.
But you must test against the code.
Code:
{if(Matr=="A1","ADALBERTO MARTINS",if(Matr=="A2","ÁLVARO ALVES NÔGA",if(Matr=="A3","BEATRIZ DE LIMA PEREIRA","")))}

Or if you want to use the matricula, you have to test:
Code:
{if(Matr.shown=="45446","ADALBERTO MARTINS",if(Matr.shown=="66818","ÁLVARO ALVES NÔGA",if(Matr.shown=="66834","BEATRIZ DE LIMA PEREIRA","")))}

The explanation you find - as usual - in the manual:
manual.limesurvey.org/Expression_Manager#Access_to_Variables




Best regards
Joffm
