[SOLVED] How to "checked" a radio button when ...

[marukochan]

OK ... I hope I can explain this well.

 

I have a list of radio button from which the user could choose what records to view

• all projects
  
• by status - (option : bidding or awarded)
  
• by date
  
• ....
  

 

If the user select 'all project' it would be no problem because the button will be checked. But, if the user wants to view projects 'by status' BUT did not click at the button but instead straight away selects bidding or awarded how do I make the 'by status' radio button checked?

 

In other words, how do I automatically checked the radio button when I made a selection from an option at that particular radio button?

 

Hope my explanation is understood.

place the input tag completely within a label tag - and keep the text inside teh label too.

ToonMariner ...... thanks for replying but I don't quite understand where to put the input tag. Sorry for being 'slow'.

 

Here's my code

form action="project_db.php" method="get">
<table width="606" border="0">
  <tr>
    <td width="32"><div align="center">1.</div></td>
    <td width="564"><strong>View</strong></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>
      <div align="center">
        <input type="radio" name="option" value="all">
        </div></td>
    <td><em>All Projects </em></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>
      <div align="center">
        <input type="radio" name="option" value="status">
        </div></td>
    <td><em>By Status : <select name="status"><option value="">--Select--</option>
<option>Bidding</option>
<option>Awarded</option></select></em></td>
  </tr>
....
....
....

 

Hope you could point where I should place the input tag.

 

Thanks
