Text Essay box won't allow space bar | XM Community
Skip to main content

I have several text (essay) boxes at the end of my survey. Qualtrics won't allow a space bar as entry. The boxes work normally during preview, but in production when people type their response the space bar isn't allowed and the words must all run together.
What gives? Any advice?

Try commenting out the key32 with the below code, apply it on the question where you are facing issue.
Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function() {
var qid = this.questionId;
document.onkeydown = function(event) {
console.log('keydown',event);
if (event.which == 32) {
return true;
}
}
});
If it still persists try raising it to Q support
Hope it helps!


Thank you Deepak!
