Relevance for any answer given in select multiple

Support
1

Hi

I am looking for the wildcard that I can put into the relevant column for a
question to be relevant for ANY answer given in a previous select multiple
question.

I have a question where an intercrop can be selected from a long list of
crops. This question is not marked as required thus if no intercrop is
grown, the question need not be answered.

I have questions that pertain to the intercrop, however if the initial
question is not answered these are not relevant.

I have used:* selected(${intercrop1}, name)* but this does not work. can
anyone suggest what I can use as a wildcard for any answer given to
${intercrop1}?

Many Thanks

Carl

not(${intercrop1}='')

Thanks Yaw that worked!

I have another relevance question.

I have a calculation, thereafter a question ${manure_collected} that will
only be relevant if the answer is greater than zero

In the relevant column I have selected(${manure_collected}, >0)

I get a 'bad node' error, what am I doing wrong?

Hi Carl,

http://opendatakit.org/help/form-design/binding has usage information.

selected(xpath/to/node, value) checks to see if node contains the
value. What you want to do is check to see if the node is > 0. To do
that, use ${manure_collected} > 0.
