I have a survey where I want a definition to display as read-only when the user selects that specific item. I have successfully added the placeholder text to each text entry field but have been unsuccessful in making the placeholder text unique to each option in the list. The three questions that I am requesting assistance with are: Select the type of credential that you think best fits. (single answer) Select the teaching method that you think best fits. (single answer) Which soft skills are you seeking in new employees? (multiple answer) I have attached a .QSF file of the survey for your reference. Any assistance and/or guidance is greatly appreciated. Credentialing_Survey.qsf

You can just create an array of placeholder text and use that in the code. So for "Type of credentials", the code will be as below:var arr = ["badge defination","CD","DD","LD","MBD","MCCD","MCCD2","MDD","MMD"];jQuery("#"+this.questionId+" .InputText").each(function(index) {jQuery(this).attr("placeholder", arr[index]);});

rondev Is it possible to get the tooltip to display when the user hovers over any portion of the single answer container rather than only when hovering over the text?

The tooltip adjustments worked perfectly! I hadn't changed all of the "$" to "jQuery."
However, I'm still unable to get the jQuery('.TextEntryBox').hide() ; to function as expected.
