function formCheck() {
var radioSelected = false;
 
for(var i=0;i<50;i++)
{
var a ="s"+i;
if((document.events.a[0].checked == false) & (document.events.a[1].checked==false) & (document.events.a[2].checked==false) & (document.events.a[3].checked==false))
{
radioSelected=false;
break;
}
if (!radio_choice)
{
alert("Please select a letter.")
return (false);
}
return (true);
}
}

the name of the radio buttons are s0,s1,s2,s3....s50
so i tried to loop but it did not recognize the radio button's name...
hopefully i will get the solution...
regards.

hi ...

some things to mention regarding your code ... i'll comment it in the code:

function formCheck() {
var radioSelected = false;
 
for (var i = 0; i < 50; i++) {
    var a = "s" + i;
 
    // the logical AND operator is && so your condition is wrong
    if((document.events.a[0].checked == false) & (document.events.a[1].checked==false) & (document.events.a[2].checked==false) & (document.events.a[3].checked==false)) {
        radioSelected = false;
        break;
    }
 
    // where did you define radio_choice?
    // in case you want to have that message displayed
    // when radioSelected is false that code is never executed
    // because of the break above 
    if (!radio_choice) {
        alert("Please select a letter.")
        return (false);
    }
 
    return (true);
}
}

try to fix your code ... in case you need further help or some hints ... post back anytime

kind regards
