Just want to insert the "%" sign after the text box. I have already a sample code I used on other question type. But this one is not working . See attached file
Here's my code
jQuery("#"+this.questionId+" .TextEntryBox .InputText").css("width","96%").after(" %");
Here's the code in the inspect element:

      https://community.qualtrics.com/XMcommunity/discussion/comment/50348#Comment_50348There should be no space between .TextEntryBox and .InputText

            @Shashi Is there a way to modify this code so the text is before the text entry box? I tried changing “after” to “before” but the text was still after the text box. 

            Thank you!
