How do I display a word count of a text entry box on a previous page onto the next page?
Hi everybody,
I am looking for a solution in qualtrics to display the number of entered words into a text entry field to the study participant.
I already found a JS code that kind of does what I want. With the code in this thread I can display the number of words, however, only on the same page (and same question) as the text entry field is. I however want the word count to be displayed on the next page.
Is it possible to change the code so that I can display the number of words entered into a text entry field on the next page?
And: Is it possible to display the cumulative word count of several text entry fields of prior pages?
I hope I expressed myself clearly enough for somebody to help - I am no coding expert at all!
Thank you so much in advance for your help!

You can use indexing with variables like [0], [1] and modify script.

This helps a lot, thank you!
This code always refers to the previous text entry field.
Is there a code that displays the wordcount of several specific fields?
