I want to create a survey with yes or no questions that opens up a clear text box when "no" is selected. I know I can achieve this by allowing "fill in choices", but I'd like to get rid of the "Specify your own value:" that appears above the box. Is there anyway to change that? Thanks!

Hi gopilogo, To modify the “fill in choices” layouts of the survey, you can use javascript to achieve this. With SharePoint Designer, modify the default.master page, add your script to it, here is an example, you can refer to it for more information: http://sharepointjim.wordpress.com/2009/07/21/how-to-change-choice-field-allow-fill-in-choice-default-text-specify-your-own-value-to-custom-text/ Thanks, Qiao

As this showed up when I was binging for a solution, I'm going to post what I ended up doing as the idea of editing the default.master page for this just seems like a really bad idea.... this post explains how I did it as a one off for specific surveys: http://iedaddy.com/2012/05/sharepoint-2010-change-survey-option-specify-your-own-value-to-other/ Of course, each survey would need to be updated with the webpart if you want this functionality across the farm, but you could also create a customized feature solution for the survey to add the javascript to all surveys....just don't edit out of the box code!!!
