Loop and merge - Using a l&m field based on criteria | XM Community
Skip to main content
We are collected addresses of places where respondents lived via a loop and merge. I have collapsed the addresses into one embedded field by loop number. Now, we'd like to answer a series of questions on each property. BUT, if they didn't give an address, we want to insert a generic term:



So field 2 contains TotAdd1 (from embedded field)

Field4 contains "current address" or "2nd address you provided" or "3rd address you provided"



My new loop questions read (as an example):



1. Tell us how long you have lived at (Insert Field here).



If they didn't know the address, and for now, it's blank, I want to use Field4. If they did provide an address, I want to use Field2.



Can this be done and if so, how? thank you!
Pipe both with Field4 inside a `<span>` tag, then use JS to hide Field4 if you don't need it.



html:

```

${lm://Field/2}<span class="field4">${lm://Field/4}</span>

```



js:

```

if("${lm://Field/2}".length > 0) jQuery(".field4").hide();

```
thank you so much! Worked perfectly......
