You have two forms.
The first with the data and the second with the submit button.
The second form only is submitted with no data.
If you placed error trapping and debugging statements in your code you would not have problems like this

Perhaps you could separate the pages out. So that you have one page with the form definition on, including all the radio buttons and the submit button.

This would have an action pointing to another page that handles the selection.

If this is not possible in this situation then have one IF statement. Check if the form has been submitted, if so handle the request else define the form in one go.
