"Other"-Field as first answer choice was created by Someone2109
Hello everybody!

My organization has been using limesurvey for an extended amount of time and we love it! However there is a thing that we would love to do:
Having a question with radio-botton-answers, the "other"-option and text field is always the last one in the answer list per default. How can I get this to be the first one? This is important to me because I have a question close to: "How many minutes does it take for you to get to your doctor?" with the possible answers of "[text field]" and "I dont have a doctor", and I want the text field to be first. How can I accomplish that? I do have some programming abilities, if that would be necessary.

Greetings from Munich, Germany:

Add this script to the source of the question:

Code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">    
  $(document).ready(function(){
    $('#question{QID} ul.answers-list').prepend($('#question{QID} ul.answers-list li:last'));
  });
</script>

Thank you for your reply a while back, I just now got back from a Vacation and couldn't read it before.

This might be a quite stupid followup question, but how do I edit the source code of the question?

There is a "Source" button in the editor - manual.limesurvey.org/Workarounds:_Manip....29_in_LimeSurvey.3F
