    I would like to apologize for the inconvenience. However, I'm not sure I understand what you mean here. Can you help us understand your concern by giving us more details, please?  We will wait for your response. Thank you.

    For an example I made a survey.  Page one I ask for your three favorite foods.  Page two, I want the answer field from question 2, 3 and 4 to be included in the question in questions 5, 6 and 7 respectively.  For example, if my fav food is Pizza in question 2, I want to the word Pizza to appear in question 5:  How spicy is Pizza?

    Unfortunately, it is not possible to pass the value of an input field to another field's label. However, you may pass the value to a Text field.

    You may then hide the labels of the questions on the second page by injecting the following CSS code to your JotForm.

    #id_7 > label {

    display: none;

    }

    #id_41 > label {

    display: none;

    }

    #id_40 > label {

    display: none;

    }

    Here is the cloned version of your JotForm with the above changes.

    Feel free to clone it to your account to see how it works.

    Thank you!
