Tracking clicks on a custom button

Question

I have added a button in my survey, which respondents can click on to read more information. I want to track whether a respondent has clicked on this button and read the additional information. While the button works well, I am not able to track if a respondent has clicked on the button and read the additional information. Below you can find the Javascript that I included to track if a respondent clicks on the button. I also include the HTML code which creates the button. Finally, I have also set embedded data to track the button: I called it “clicked1” and set it as empty. I have tried multiple times, with various Javascript options, and I have not been able to track it in any of the attempts. Would any of you know how to fix this??? I’d immensely appreciate it! :) JAVASCRIPT TO TRACK CLICKS: Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function() { var questionContainer = this.getQuestionContainer(); var infobutton1 = questionContainer.querySelector('#infobutton1'); var infotext1 = questionContainer.querySelector('#infotext1'); if (infobutton1 && infotext1) { infobutton1.onclick = function() { infotext1.style.display = 'block'; Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData('clicked1', '1'); }; } else { console.error('Elements not found'); }}); HTML TO DISPLAY THE BUTTON:

Hi,Your code seems to work just fine in classic layouts. If you use the simple layout, you’ll want to name your ED field __js_clicked1 inthe survey flow and set it withQualtrics.SurveyEngine.setJSEmbeddedData('clicked1', '1');
