Hello, I have a another question based on this situation.
How do I do this if the questions are not on the same page? (So If I display the questions page per page).
Question 1 lets the user choose the course
Question 2 lets the user select the teacher which is possible for the selected course?

Can you please give me a shot example?!
Many thanks in advance!

Assuming both questions are single-choice radios, remove the script from Q1 and add something like this to Q2:

Code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
  $(document).ready(function(){
 
    // The Q2 options corresponding to the Q1 options    
    teacherLists = {
      C1 : 'T1,T3,T5',
      C2 : 'T1,T2,T3,T4',
      C3 : 'T2,T3,T4,T5',
      C4 : 'T1,T4,T6'
    };
 
    // Identify this question
    var thisQuestion = $('#question{QID}')
 
    // The checked option in Q1
    var q1Ans = '{Q1}';
 
    // Hide all of the teachers
    $('li[id^="javatbd"]', thisQuestion).hide();
 
    // Now show the appropriate ones
    $(teacherLists[q1Ans].split(',')).each(function(i){
      $('input.radio[id$="'+{QID}+this+'"]').closest('li').show();
    });
 
    // Uncheck all hidden radios (in case page has been seen before)
    $('li[id^="javatbd"]:hidden input.radio', thisQuestion).prop('checked', false);
  });
</script>

Hey Denis, thank you for the suggestion. unfortunately, I'm a bit confused due to my lack of speaking French :/
Tonys version should work. If not, I'll come again and try the translator or just ask ;)
Many thanks to you!

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
  $(document).ready(function(){
 
    // The Q2 options corresponding to the Q1 options    
    teacherLists = {
      C1 : 'T1,T3,T5',

    };
 
    // Identify this question
    var thisQuestion = $('#question{QID}')
 
    // The checked option in Q1
    var q1Ans = '{Q1}';
 
    // Hide all of the teachers
    $('.answer-item', thisQuestion).hide();
 
    // Now show the appropriate ones
    $(teacherLists[q1Ans].split(',')).each(function(i){
      $('input.radio[id$="'+{QID}+this+'"]').closest('.answer-item').show();
    });
 
    // Uncheck all hidden radios (in case page has been seen before)

Hi!

I have a similar situation. I have tried to use the script that you shared and it didn't work (once you tick a certain answer in q1 it doesn't modify the options in Q2). I also tried to use your test survey, and it is the same result, no change. Is there anything else I should have done? Is this working only for certain versions?My version is 2.67.3+170728.

Many many thanks!
