Hello:
On a web page I check the value of a cookie and set one of two radio
buttons accordingly.
function setRadioForm() {
var myCookie = document.cookie ;
var OpenOnly = myCookie.substr ing(9);
if (OpenOnly == "True") {
document.ViewOp tions.Open.chec ked = true;
}
else {
document.ViewOp tions.All.check ed = true;
}
}
<body onload="setRadi oForm()">
This works fine. The correct radio button appears checked when the
form opens. However, when the user checks one of the buttons (usually
the unchecked one), both buttons remain checked.
Here's the code on the form:
<form name='ViewOptio ns">
<input type="radio" name="Open" value="True"
onclick="setCoo kie("True")> Always, show me open items only.
<input type="radio" name="All" value="False"
onclick=setCook ie("False")>Alw ays show me all items, open and closed.
</form>
The onclick fires correctly, but the button which was not clicked
remains checked. Am I doing something wrong or is this a limitation
in the browser/code?

When you have a group of radio buttons (I.E. only one can be selected), you
need to name them the same. The checked value, if any, will be the only one
returned under that name. Since they are named the same you need to access
them like so: 1st radio button: document.ViewOp tions.Open[0].checked 2nd
radio button: document.ViewOp tions.Open[1].checked

Use a different quote character when nesting:
onclick="setCoo kie('True')">
....and make sure that quotes are paired.
<input type="radio" name="All" value="False"

Radio buttons must belong to the same 'group' in order to have interaction
with each other. You do this by giving them the same name. Using your code
above, you could do this like so:
<FORM name="ViewOptio ns">
<INPUT type="radio" name="items" value="open"
onclick="setCoo kie('True')"> Always, show me open items only.
<INPUT type="radio" name="items" value="all"
onclick="setCoo kie('False')"> Always show me all items, open and
closed.
</FORM>
With this new arrangement, you might want to rename your cookies (True and
False don't quite make sense in this context).

I thought I had to name them differently to reference them. Thanks.

So now you've learned why you should *never* transcribe code
into a post when you're asking why it doesn't work. It's
like sending your brother in to the doctor to find out why
your shoulder hurts.
Always copy and paste code that you know shows the problem.

Right you are. The code was on a machine not corrected to newsgroups,
and I knew the problem had to be more conceptual than syntactical, but
I take your point.

The following (likely far from imperfect code), reports a value of NaN
in the j4 display. I suppose the problem is I am not really passing
the "checked" value of the radio button via .value ... without having
to get this value via html, is there any way I can passed the checked
value via html .. maybe with syntax like n4.checked.value or
something..
Many thanks.

Hi all,
I got the question about the radio button. How do i
detect previous checked radio button after i checked
other's radio button.
While the new radio button checked, it need to prompt out
a confirm message box, if user click on the 'cancel'
button, system will programatically check the previous
radio button instead of the latest radio button that
checked.

Hi,
I use a radio button form in which users can select a color by clicking
on a image.
I would like this image to change to another one when it's chosen.
(image with a "Chosen" Stamp in the middle)
Of course I like it to be restored if hte user select another color.
I've tried to add behaviour to the image (swap on click) and on the
button (onchange swap restore) but it doesn't work (hte image id
swapped and restored almost instantly).
