==================
Hi,
I have a matrix with 3 rows (A, B, C) and 3 columns (1,2,3) and I want to delete an option in a matrix (A3). I tried to do it with a code similar to this one:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
 
  $(document).ready(function() {
 
    // Remove row 1, answer "A3"
    $('#question{QID} tr.answers-list:eq(0) input:radio[value="A3"]').nextAll('label').remove();
    $('#question{QID} tr.answers-list:eq(0) input:radio[value="A3"]').remove();
 
  });  
</script>

but this code it's from an old post and now it's not working in Lime writted like this in "script".

Does anyone have a better solution? Thank you very much!

We cannot help if you don't answer the questions about your LimeSurvey version etc.

Use this, adapt it..
You see, both row and column are addressed by ":eq(x)"
Code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
     $(document).ready(function() {
    // Remove in row 1
    $('#question{QID} tr[id^="javatbd"]:eq(0) .radio-item:eq(0) *').remove();
    $('#question{QID} tr[id^="javatbd"]:eq(0) .radio-item:eq(1) *').remove();
    // Remove in row 6
    $('#question{QID} tr[id^="javatbd"]:eq(5) .radio-item:eq(3) *').remove();
    $('#question{QID} tr[id^="javatbd"]:eq(5) .radio-item:eq(4) *').remove();
    // Remove in row 7
    $('#question{QID} tr[id^="javatbd"]:eq(6) .radio-item:eq(0) *').remove();
    $('#question{QID} tr[id^="javatbd"]:eq(6) .radio-item:eq(1) *').remove();
    $('#question{QID} tr[id^="javatbd"]:eq(6) .radio-item:eq(3) *').remove();
    $('#question{QID} tr[id^="javatbd"]:eq(6) .radio-item:eq(4) *').remove();
  });
</script>

Im trying the same with your cade and nothing happens:

I wrote this in "script":

$(document).ready(function() {
// Remove in row 1, col 3
$('#question{QID} tr[id^="javatbd"]:eq(a) .radio-item:eq(3) *').remove();
});

I attach the .lss

eq(a) ????
What is this?
You saw that all values x of eq(x) are numerical and how they refer to row resp.  column.
It always starts with "0" for the first row/col.
