Glitch manually programming a drill down | XM Community
Skip to main content

I started a survey last year not realizing that when you reload a drilldown question with an edited list, it will RECODE all of your values. I have about 60 program specific reports that I am basing off of the value of these codes. Since I plan to use this program monthly for a few years I accepted just updating the filters but unexpectedly I have more changes to the drilldown. To avoid hours of redoing saved filter I am trying to hard code the drill down. I am having decent success but when I click the next button my program name and program number get wiped out of the input. If you can provide any help with how to prevent that from happening I’d appreciate it.

 

Otherwise I have a work around where I save the program number in the Embedded data and base my filters on Embedded data instead of Question data. That is okay but it takes some working and fingers crossing to get this set up BEFORE having data that chose a particular program number - a requirement as I am showing people their cumulative responses live through an advanced report.

 

I am not the strongest programmer and this is definitely brute force programmed. Some providers have multiple programs but each program will only have one program number.

I’m sorry, I wasn’t able to go through your code as it was too long and without a reference of what I was working it, would take too much time to parse.

However, if your only issue is recode values, why don’t you add them as an additional column and then use JS to autoselect that option.

You’ll then have access to this column in your answers similar to the recode value.

For example:

I added a 4th column (let’s call it recode) to the Qualtrics drill down sample:

 

 

And use the following JS to autoselect the 4th row:

 

Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnReady(function () {
	const quest = this;
	const qc = quest.questionContainer;
	const allSelects = qc.querySelectorAll("select");
	const numSelects = allSelects.length;

	const lastSelect = allSelects numSelects - 1];
	const secondLastSelect = allSelects numSelects - 2];

	secondLastSelect.onchange = function () {
		setTimeout(() => {
			lastSelect.optionse1].selected = true;
		}, 50);
	};

	// Disabling User Interaction with the select box
	lastSelect.disabled = true;
	lastSelect.style.pointerEvents = "none";
	lastSelect.style.cursor = "not-allowed";

	// Removing the Drop down arrow
	lastSelect.style.appearance = "none";
	lastSelect.style.border = "none";

	// Hiding the recode row
	// const parents = lastSelect.ancestors();
	// for (let i = 0; i < parents.length; i++) {
	// 	const el = parents i];
	// 	console.log(i, el);
	// 	if (el.tagName == "TR") {
	// 		el.style.opacity = 0;
	// 		break;
	// 	}
	// }
});

@bstrahin,

I’ve used select2 with a form question to create custom drill-downs a number of times, and I would recommend this approach if you need the flexibility of a custom drill-down.  The advantages are:

  1. The data (i.e., select options) can come from an array of objects or ajax.  If your case, arrays of objects would work and would be much easier to maintain than unwieldy html strings.
  2. The selects can be attached directly to text input fields in your form.
  3. The selects are searchable
  4. The data can contain additional fields that can be saved into additional form fields (typically hidden)

Thank you @TomG and @ahmedA. Your guidance sent me digging and I found a few tweaks to make my code work. Some playing around and changing the functions from on(‘change’,function() to on(‘click’,function() made a big difference. I am posting a shorter example for anyone who needs to replicate.

 

Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnReady(function(){
   /*Place your JavaScript here to run when the page is fully displayed */
   var that = this.questionId;

   //Add options that should be in the dropdown list
   //s1 = first field in the drill down (Internet Provider)
   //s2 = second list in the drill down (Plan)
   //s3 = third list in the drill down  (Price -- totally made up)

   //Full list we are working from
   //Spectrum   Plan A   25
   //Spectrum   Plan B   40
   //Charter    Plan A   80
   //AT&T       Plan A   35
   //AT&T       Plan B   45
   //AT&T       Plan C   70
   //TDS        Plan A   90

   //Create S1 list: Spectrum, Charter, AT&T, TDS
   var element = (
       //blank first option
       "<select id='s1'><option></option><option value='1'>Spectrum</option>" +
       "<option value='2'>Charter</option><option value='3'>AT&T</option>" +
       "<option value='4'>TDS</option></select>"
   );

   //Assign blank drop downs for rows 2 and 3
   var element2 = "<select id='s2'><option></option></select>";
   var element3 = "<select id='s3'><option></option></select>";

   jQuery(element).insertAfter("#" + that + " .InputText:eq(0)");
   jQuery(element2).insertAfter("#" + that + " .InputText:eq(1)");
   jQuery(element3).insertAfter("#" + that + " .InputText:eq(2)");

   //hide regular text input fields
   jQuery("#" + that + " .InputText:eq(0)").hide();
   jQuery("#" + that + " .InputText:eq(1)").hide();
   jQuery("#" + that + " .InputText:eq(2)").hide();

   //upon selection, display the text value
   jQuery("#" + that + " .InputText:eq(0)").val(jQuery("#s1 option:selected").text());
   jQuery("#" + that + " .InputText:eq(1)").val(jQuery("#s2 option:selected").text());
   jQuery("#" + that + " .InputText:eq(1)").val(jQuery("#s3 option:selected").text());

   //when a change is made to s1 (first row of entry)
   jQuery("#s1").on('click',function(){
      //look up value in that box, store it variable provider, and display in the console
      jQuery("#" + that + " .InputText:eq(0)").val(jQuery("#s1 option:selected").text());
      var provider = jQuery("#" + that + " .InputText:eq(0)").val(); 

      //for providers with just 1 plan and price combo...
	  //do NOT program a blank option at the start of the lists
      //If provider is Charter
      if(provider == 'Charter'){
         var element2 = "<select id='s2'><option value='3'>Plan A</option></select>";
         var element3 = "<select id='s3'><option value='3'>80</option></select>";
      }
      //If provider is TDS
      if(provider=='TDS'){
         var element2 = "<select id='s2'><option value='7'>Plan A</option></select>";
         var element3 = "<select id='s3'><option value='7'>90</option></select>";
      }

      //for providers with multiple plans
      //Spectrum
      if(provider=='Spectrum'){
          var element2 = "<select id='s2'><option></option><option value='1'>Plan A</option><option value='2'>Plan B</option></select>";
          var element3 = "<select id='s3'><option></option></select>";
      }
      //AT&T 
      if(provider=='AT&T'){
          var element2 = "<select id='s2'><option></option><option value='4'>Plan A</option><option value='5'>Plan B</option><option value='6'>Plan C</option></select>";
          var element3 = "<select id='s3'><option></option></select>";
      }

      //autoselect these values and click on them to have them save
	  jQuery("#s2").hide();  //hides original blank list you inserted
      jQuery(element2).insertAfter("#" + that + " .InputText:eq(1)");  //inserts list defined above and simulates a click
      jQuery("#" + that + " .InputText:eq(1)").val(jQuery("#s2 option:selected").text());  //displays text that goes with the value

      jQuery("#s3").hide();
      jQuery(element3).insertAfter("#" + that + " .InputText:eq(2)");
      jQuery("#" + that + " .InputText:eq(2)").val(jQuery("#s3 option:selected").text());

	   //for providers with multiple plans

		  jQuery("#" + that + " .InputText:eq(2)").val(jQuery("#s3 option:selected").text());
		  var price=jQuery("#" + that + " .InputText:eq(2)").val();

          //If provider is Spectrum
          //Plan A 
          if(provider == 'Spectrum' && plan == 'Plan A'){
              var element3 = "<select id='s3'><option value='1'>25</option></select>";
          }
          //Plan B 
          if(provider == 'Spectrum' && plan == 'Plan B'){
              var element3 = "<select id='s3'><option value='2'>40</option></select>";
          }

          //If provider is AT&T
          //Plan A 
          if(provider == 'AT&T' && plan == 'Plan A'){
              var element3 = "<select id='s3'><option value='4'>35</option></select>";
          }
          //Plan B 
          if(provider == 'AT&T' && plan == 'Plan B'){
              var element3 = "<select id='s3'><option value='5'>45</option></select>";
          }

              var element3 = "<select id='s3'><option value='6'>70</option></select>";
          }
