Question asking time of the day

Use a text entry question and use JS to change the input type attribute from ‘text’ to ‘time’:

Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function() {
  this.getQuestionContainer().querySelectorAll("[input=text]")[0].setAttribute("type","text");
});

Thanks TomG.

I tried what you said, but I still don’t get any changes. 

I set a text entry question as you said and added the JavaScript as in the pic, but still getting a normal text box in the preview.

What I am doing wrong?

Thanks!

The selector should be [input=text] instead of [input=time]

Like this?

Nothing changed. Still getting the same text box as in the previous pic.

Sorry, I had the selector wrong. It should be:

Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function() {
	this.getQuestionContainer().querySelectorAll("input[type=text]")[0].setAttribute("type","time");
});

Still not working.

I am using the preview mode. Could it be that I have to publish the survey to see it work?

It works for me in preview mode:

Then I don’t know what else to do.

Thanks anyway

Actually, it works using a Form Field instead of a Text Entry.

Is there a way to make it in 24h format instead of PM/AM?

Thanks!

​@Giulia_P that’s set by the browser based on the user’s preferences. You can’t control that. At your end, the value will always be in HH:mm format.
