Category: None Group: None Status: Open Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: kswartz (kswartz) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Cannot create conditions on questions with multiple answers Initial Comment: Most conditions are based on radio buttons, but it's reasonable to expect that you may want to display questions according to selected checkboxes on a question that allows more than one answer. For instance, if a question asks: "What kind of vehicle(s) do you own? [ ] Motorcycle [ ] Car [ ] SUV [ ] Minivan " You may want to ask additional questions in a future section if they have a motorcycle, and other additional questions if they have a car. The workaround is to split this up into separate questions and use Yes/No radio buttons. For example: "Do you drive a motorcycle? () Yes () No Do you drive a car? () Yes () No ... " This isn't necessarily a bad idea -- it may make reporting easier. But if you have a "checklist" of, say, ten items, this could make the survey considerably long by turning one question into ten. The fix as I see it is to add a new conditional operation called "contains". For instance, you would say "Show question 42 is question 21 CONTAINS Motorcycle". The code fix is pretty easy: 1) if the response is an array, convert it to a comma-separated scalar (e.g.: "Motorcycle,Car,SUV" 2) perform your SQL query with LIKE '%$RESPONSE_VALUE%' in the where clause. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Franky Van Liedekerke (liedekef) Date: 2009-03-07 00:35 Message: Well, feel free to make a patch available ...
