Hello, I have form field question ; and for the email I sent out on submit I need to generate a string “label”+”value”. I can read the value of the input, but I can’t figure out how to read the ‘label”?

is it possible to read a text value of the Form Field Label into jquery variable?

Hello
you can manually update the piped text for those options.
Let’s say that the text entry value piped text for your first field is ${q://QID32/ChoiceTextEntryValue/1}
you just need to replace the part “ChoiceTextEntryValue” for “ChoiceDescription”. So it would be ${q://QID32/ChoiceDescription/1}.
Hope this helps!

jQuery("#" + this.questionId + ".InputText”).eq(0).val();
Change the eq value based on the field.
Hope it helps!

Thank you for you answer. The reason I think I better do it with jquery is that I have so many fields, and I need to concat them only if the input value is not zero(also, it’s not just append values, but I need to add ‘label’ in one <td> cell, and the ‘input’ value in another <td>, and then also where is a <td> with a product of the input value and another Embedded Data. If I do it through workflow the branching looks really long and scary:(
jQuery("#" + this.questionId + ".InputText”).eq(0).val();
Change the eq value based on the field.
Hope it helps!
Hello
I am trying to implement you suggestion , and I am getting JS error(can’t save),
this is what I have:
Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnUnload(function()
{
/*Place your JavaScript here to run when the page is unloaded*/
var temp=jQuery("#" + this.questionId + ".InputText”).eq(0).val();
alert(temp);
});what do I do miss?
Thank you again.

I think you could do this by getting the inner text of the form fields based on their id, like in the below:
var qid = this.questionId;
var label1 = document.getElementById("QR~"+qid+"~1~label").innerText;
var label2 = document.getElementById("QR~"+qid+"~2~label").innerText;
var label3 = document.getElementById("QR~"+qid+"~3~label").innerText;You could also do it with jQuery based on the index of span.LabelWrapper label>span, like in the below:
var qid = this.questionId;
var label1 = jQuery("#"+qid+" span.LabelWrapper label>span").eq(0).text();
var label2 = jQuery("#"+qid+" span.LabelWrapper label>span").eq(1).text();
var label3 = jQuery("#"+qid+" span.LabelWrapper label>span").eq(2).text();
