Multiple question types in array modifiy was created by phpsurvey
Hi,

I dont't understand how I can Modify the question IDs in the first section of the code to match your survey.


I applied a lot of questions but I don't know which question IDs should I take and where can I insert the ID in the below-mentioned source code???
Code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
 
  $(document).ready(function() {
 
    /*********** 
    Display multiple questions side by side
    ***********/
 
    //////// Define question attributes for later use ////////
 
    // Give questions row specific attributes so we can easily manipulate them by row
    $('#question190, #question191, #question192, #question193, #question194').attr('name', 'qRow1');
    $('#question195, #question196, #question197, #question198, #question199').attr('name', 'qRow2');
    $('#question200, #question201, #question202, #question203, #question204').attr('name', 'qRow3');
    $('#question205, #question206, #question207, #question208, #question209').attr('name', 'qRow4');
 
    // Give questions column specific attributes so we can easily manipulate them by column
    // I know, not the correct use of "rel" attribute but...too bad!
    $('#question190, #question195, #question200, #question205').attr('rel', 'qCol1');
    $('#question191, #question196, #question201, #question206').attr('rel', 'qCol2');
    $('#question192, #question197, #question202, #question207').attr('rel', 'qCol3');
    $('#question193, #question198, #question203, #question208').attr('rel', 'qCol4');
    $('#question194, #question199, #question204, #question209').attr('rel', 'qCol5');
 
    //////// Survey layout manipulation ////////
 
    // Fix the width of the survey
    $( 'table.outerframe' ).css({
      'width': '900px'
    });
 
    // Wrap each row in a div
    // This is kinda verbose but IE won't let me use jQuery shortcuts
    var el = document.createElement('div');
    el.setAttribute('id','inlineWrapper1');
    document.body.appendChild(el);
    $('div[name="qRow1"]').wrapAll($('#inlineWrapper1'));

The question IDs in my example are 190-209 (#question190, #question191, #question192,.....).

Replace them in the first 2 blocks of code:
Code:
//////// Define question attributes for later use ////////
 
    // Give questions row specific attributes so we can easily manipulate them by row
    $('#question190, #question191, #question192, #question193, #question194').attr('name', 'qRow1');
    $('#question195, #question196, #question197, #question198, #question199').attr('name', 'qRow2');
    $('#question200, #question201, #question202, #question203, #question204').attr('name', 'qRow3');
    $('#question205, #question206, #question207, #question208, #question209').attr('name', 'qRow4');
 
    // Give questions column specific attributes so we can easily manipulate them by column
    // I know, not the correct use of "rel" attribute but...too bad!
    $('#question190, #question195, #question200, #question205').attr('rel', 'qCol1');
    $('#question191, #question196, #question201, #question206').attr('rel', 'qCol2');
    $('#question192, #question197, #question202, #question207').attr('rel', 'qCol3');
    $('#question193, #question198, #question203, #question208').attr('rel', 'qCol4');
    $('#question194, #question199, #question204, #question209').attr('rel', 'qCol5');

You can see the ID when editing a question:

Hi tpartner,
thank you for your answer....

I try to do this since 5 hours but nothing works :(

For example I insert question 35 but the result is nothing - what is my error ???
Code:
 
    //////// Define question attributes for later use ////////
 
    // Give questions row specific attributes so we can easily manipulate them by row
    $('#question35, #question191, #question192, #question193, #question194').attr('name', 'qRow1');
    $('#question195, #question196, #question197, #question198, #question199').attr('name', 'qRow2');
    $('#question200, #question201, #question202, #question203, #question204').attr('name', 'qRow3');
    $('#question205, #question206, #question207, #question208, #question209').attr('name', 'qRow4');
 
    // Give questions column specific attributes so we can easily manipulate them by column
    // I know, not the correct use of "rel" attribute but...too bad!
    $('#question35, #question195, #question200, #question205').attr('rel', 'qCol1');
    $('#question191, #question196, #question201, #question206').attr('rel', 'qCol2');
    $('#question192, #question197, #question202, #question207').attr('rel', 'qCol3');
    $('#question193, #question198, #question203, #question208').attr('rel', 'qCol4');
    $('#question194, #question199, #question204, #question209').attr('rel', 'qCol5');

You need to modify ALL of the question IDs, not just the first one. Can you activate a sample survey?

Hi tpartner ,

could you please export your survey with this example and send the file to me or make it downloadable.

My nerves are quite frayed.

Here is the demo survey but bear in mind that you will need to modify the IDs in it as well - they will get changed when you import it into your system.

That IS the survey used in the demo mentioned in the workaround . I'm afraid I don't know any other way to explain that you need to modify the question IDs to match your questions.

the solution is: the ids were wrong - when you import the survey you have to set the id in the script

190 - 209

for example your ids

310 - 329

190 310
191 311
192 312
193 313
194 314
195 315
196 316
197 317
198 318
199 319
200 320
201 321
202 322
203 323
204 324
205 325
206 326
207 327
208 328
209 329
