Automatically proceed to next question (without clicking "next") was created by ahavlik
Hi,
I'm trying to allow my participants to to automatically move to the next question after clicking yes/no so that I may record their proper response times. I've tried to figure this out using javascript however, I don't have administrator capabilities as its through my university's website so not sure how to embed java. If anyone knows what to do/has a fix, please let me know. Thanks for your time to anyone reading this.

If using a yes/no radio question,
set up your survey to use JavaScript
and add the following script to the source of the question.
Code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"> $(document).ready(function(){ $('#question{QID} input.radio'),click(function() { if($('#movesubmitbtn').length > 0) { document.limesurvey.move.value = 'movesubmit'; } else { document.limesurvey.move.value = 'movenext'; } document.limesurvey.submit(); }); }); </script>

Thanks for this!
The issue I'm having now is trying to get the admin at my university to change the global settings to allow javascript to run (which they won't do). Can you think of any non-java workarounds I might try to use? Anyway, thanks for your time.
Sincerely,
Andrew

Unfortunately, I don't know of any non-JavaScript solutions.

Perhaps related to this...Is there a way to auto_submit a survey?
I would like to automatically submit the survey before a session timed out if the respondent "walked away" from a live survey.
Is it possible?

Again, you will have to use javascript.
function doSubmit() {
document.limesurvey.move2.click();
}
setTimeout("doSubmit()", #000);
# sets the number of seconds for auto submission
function doSubmit() {
document.limesurvey.move2.click();
}
setTimeout("doSubmit()", #000);
# sets the number of seconds for auto submission

do no exist a non-javascript solution
I tell you why
Do click is an event that occurs on the client side on the client PC
Javascript is a client-side scripting language
He is the only one that can interact with the user because HTML is too poor
:woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:
too much coffee
Best

To follow up on this,
How would you program this to occur on every page of the survey?
So, if on page 3, the respondent walked away from the survey, how would you submit after 5 minutes time?
What about page 4? and so on?

Well, auto-submitting the survey may be a little problematic because unanswered mandatory questions would prevent it and even if the submit worked it would only lead to the next survey page.
I think a better approach may be to pop up a warning after some period of inactivity and then redirect to somewhere like the root of the survey installation (the survey list page).
I'll need to give some thought to how to determine "inactivity", or more to the point, "activity" with all question types.

I hear what you're saying...
The goal I have is to collect as much data as possible, so I'm not sure redirection is the answer.
Any advice you have to offer is always much appreciated.

I can't agree with forcing the browser to submit the form. I my opinion, any form submission should be left entirely up to the user.
However, if you just want to remove the survey from an inactive computer you can add something like this to the end of template.js.
(adjust the first 5 variable as necessary)
This will:
- Start an "alert" timer on page load
- When the "alert" timer expires a dialog is popped up and a "redirect" timer is started
- When the "redirect" timer expires the page is redirected
- Closing the dialog will stop the "redirect" timer and restart the "alert" timer
- Any activity in the form (click, key-up, paste, change) will restart the "alert" timer
