Radio button & simple text field types displayed in same item
I'm creaeting a survey where one of the questions requires the user to specify "other" behavior by filling in a simple text field, and to ALSO make a radio button selection (see visual example below).
Where it says "Uddyb", user should type in text, then select a radio button.
How do I set this up on the designer interface? As far as I can see, I'm limited EITHER a radio button config OR a text field. Hope I am wrong? Please advise.

Dirk De Grave just added a new comment to the 'Radio
button & simple text field types displayed in same item' topic.
you want this in the admin interface ? If so, I'd look
into how to build a custom datatype. More info on custom datatypes can be found
on umbraco.tv... and there's some useful info on Tim's blog (he's done some
presentations on making custom datatypes)
Your
reply via email does not appear on the topic I posted online. It's been a week,
shouldn't it? I'm
quite a newbie at Umbraco, so I have some follow up questions to your post for
clarity. When you
ask me if I want "this in the admin interface" - do you mean
"the backend" (snapshot of the interface I am using is below):
Please
just clarify whether it is possible to set the data type I want using the admin
interface (as shown above) or if someone with programming knowledge needs to be
involved.
Many
thanks from your friendly neighborhood luddite J

Hi Dirk,
General comment about the forum http://our.umbraco.org/forum/umbraco-pro/contour/20362-Radio-button-simple-text-field-types-displayed-in-same-item
Your reply via email does not appear on the topic I posted online. It's been a week, shouldn't it? I'm quite a newbie at Umbraco, so I have some follow up questions to your post for clarity. When you ask me if I want "this in the admin interface" - do you mean "the backend" (snapshot of the interface I am using is below):
I watched some of the video http://umbraco.com/help-and-support/video-tutorials/developing-with-umbraco/data-editor-settings/creating-a-configurable-db-driven-dropdownlist . However, I have no experience in visual studio. Is this type of data field ONLY possible with that level of programming? If so, Tim’s blog advice is totally out of my league, so I’ll have to get one of our developers on the task.
Please just clarify whether it is possible to set the data type I want using the admin interface (as shown above) or if someone with programming knowledge needs to be involved.
Many thanks from your friendly neighborhood luddite J
