Radio button certain answer required?

Hi all, sorry about the horrible thread title.

I have a list of questions that have either a yes or a no answer. I was wondering if there is a way to have a message appear if the user selects no.

For example

If the questions was "Do you have a dog?" and the user selected no, then text would appear saying "Click this link to buy a dog" and the submit button wouldn't work.


I haven't explained very well so let me know if you need me to describe better.

Cheers

Hi Jamie,

There's nothing built into ChronoForms to do that but you can code it in JavaScript without too much difficulty.

Hi Bob

I thought I would need to code it in javascript (using an if statement I would imagine). Sadly, I haven't a clue how to code (apart from a tiny bit of VB6 years ago). Any chance you could give me a guideline on how to code it?

Ok I have been messing around and have managed to get it working.

Code I am using is this

    window.onload = function()

    {

        var a = document.getElementById('radio01');
        var b = document.getElementById('radio11');
        var c = document.getElementById('radio21');

        a.onclick = message1;
        b.onclick = message2;
        c.onclick = message3;

    }

    function message1() 
    {
        alert('This is message 1');
    }

  function message2() 
    {
        alert('This is message 2');
    }

  function message3() 
    {
        alert('This is message 3');
    }

Now I was wondering, how do I disable the submit button when one of these buttons are still checked?

Hi jkerr,

Try

if ( $('radio01').checked || $('radio02').checked || $('radio03').checked ) {
  $('submit').disabled = true; 
} else {
  $('submit').disabled = false; 
}
