Trying to get value of a radio button in JavaScript

I have a couple of radio buttons that make various things appear/disappear
on the screen through JavaScript. All works great. Problem is I'll click a
radio button, something will appear, I reload the page for other reasons and
the item disappears. The reason it disappears is I have to set the state
initially to invisible so it doesn't show up initially.

The radio buttons are html radio buttons not aspx radio buttons so I can
have the javascript react to it.

I'm also using master pages just to complicate life.

So how do I check the value of the radio button in javascript so I can then
make the item appear depending on which button was selected.

TIA - Jeff.

Hi Jeff,

You can use Request.Form("c heckboxname") in ASP.net to do some logic
to change the initial visibility on postback.

I want to produce a trivial demonstration of dynamic modification. I thought that pressing a button might change its color. I studied O'Reillys books and successfully created the button with a fancy style, but the onclick fails to do anything no matter what permutation of parameters I try. <input type=button style=background-color:yellow;color:blue;font-family:Arial;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold name="xyz" value="CHANGE COLOUR"...

I'm using some standard HTML radio buttons (to allow finer javascript interaction) on a web page and would like to catch the selected item on postback. Since they are all ID's uniquely, is there a way to grab only the selected item's value? Or do I need to write an if/then statement to figure out which one is selected? Sample: <input runat="server" id="radio1" name="category" /> <input runat="server" id="radio2" name="category" />

When we want radio button to belong to a group name we say, radio1.GroupName="GroupA". In this case, radio1 will be unselected if another radio button is selected in "GroupA". Is there a way (trick, custom RadioButton, or javascript) to make radio button (radio1) belong to 2 independent radio button groups instead of one? This would be an equivalent of sayting something like radio1.GroupName1 = "GroupA"; radio1.GroupName2 = "GroupB";

I am changing an existing quiz found on "JavaScriptKit.com Multiple Choice Quiz" I have an image. Instead of using the radio buttons with the normal true/false question, I want to place two hotspots on the image. One being correct(a) and the other incorrect(b). When the user clicks on the correct hotspot or place on the image, it should score and retain that value until the end of the quiz. At the end of the quiz, there is a submit button...

According to http://www.quirksmode.org/js/forms.html you need to look through a radio button's members to find the value: I tried writing a reusable function to return the value, see code at: http://www.geocities.com/usenet_daughter/javascript_radio.htm but for some reason I can only get a value if I hard code the control name.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not.
