call finction to set a radio button

I can not see what the problem is with this script. I am just trying to
set a radio button by calling setCheckedValue('abbr_letter', 'V'). Sorry
I am new to javascript.
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function setCheckedValue(radioObj, newValue) {
if(!radioObj)
return;

var radioLength = radioObj.length;
if(radioLength == undefined) {
radioObj.checked = (radioObj.value == newValue.toString());
return;
}
for(var i = 0; i < radioLength; i++) {
radioObj[i].checked = false;
if(radioObj[i].value == newValue.toString()) {
radioObj[i].checked = true;
}
}
}
function disp_alert()
{
alert("I am an alert box!!")
}
</SCRIPT>
</head>

I rewrote the function and it works. I thought that the old function
should work..

function setCheckedValue(newValue) {
var len = document.author_abbrv.abbr_letter.length
for(var i = 0; i < len; i++) {
document.author_abbrv.abbr_letter[i].checked = false;
if(document.author_abbrv.abbr_letter[i].value ==
newValue.toString()) {
document.author_abbrv.abbr_letter[i].checked = true;
}
}
}

}
In the original function, you receive the *name* of the radio
group as the first argument, and try to treat that string
as if it were the Radio object. The name of the thing is not
the thing.

Thanks... Then how do I pass the reference to that Object to a

Dear YouAre,

Why do you make bold an element part the does not display anything?
Sorry I do not understand your question... I am posting the selections
to a php var. from the php var I can pass that to the javascript
function. I just need to have the selected radio button available to php.

In this snip of code I am not using this action. This is why I hard
codded the call to the javascript function.

Thanks anyway... I found it:

setCheckedValue(document.author_abbrv.elements['abbr_letter'], 'S');

Because it is really a php script and I missed it when I was stripping
it out to post an example! I am new to javascript/php and not
programming. Turns out it was a call from php that should resolve the
problem.

echo 'setCheckedValue("abbr_letter", "'.$_SESSION['abbr_letter'].'")';
