The following HTML shows how you can add radio buttons to your list.
<form>
<input type="radio" name="gender" value="male" checked />Ram's Home<br>
<input type="radio" name="gender" value="female" />Sam's Home<br>
<input type="radio" name="gender" value="other" />Dam's Home
</form>

which one is more appropriate?
First one:
<div>
<label for="male">Male</label>
<input type="radio" name="gender" id="male" value="male">
</div>
Second one:
<label for="male">Male
<input type="radio" name="gender" id="male" value="male">
</label>
They're working as well, but i'm not sure if the second option is good with all html structures.
I would put input inside label like this and wouldn't use outside div wrapper:
<label for="male">Male
<input type="radio" name="gender" id="male" value="male">
</label>
In this way input gets focus when clicked on the label text Male.
Both options are valid HTML per the w3 spec and the for isn't mandatory in the second form.
Use whichever you prefer.
Good day, before we start, forgive the noobishness of the question. Just picked up HTML today.
I'm experimenting with the following code:
<form>
<input type="radio" id="radeng" checked />Male
<br/>
<input type="radio" id="radnor" />Female
</form>
Now, the way I understood it, I should be able to pick either "Male" or "Female" from the first selection.
Problem is, I can select both "Male" AND "Female".
Which is a little weird, and kinda' goes against what I'm trying to achieve.
Can anyone spot my error?
17 Forms / 17.2.1 Control types
Radio buttons are like checkboxes except that when several share the same control name, they are mutually exclusive: when one is switched "on", all others with the same name are switched "off".
Therefore if you want the radio elements to be mutually exclusive, you need to give them all the same name attribute. In this case, I gave them both a value of gender.
For usability, I'd also suggest wrapping the text nodes with label elements with for attributes that match the radio element ids. In doing so, you can toggle the radios by clicking the text (label).
<form>
<label for="radeng">Male</label>
<input type="radio" name="gender" id="radeng" checked />
<label for="radnor">Female</label>
<input type="radio" name="gender" id="radnor" />
</form>
You need to provide a name attribute with the same value and it will select only one. Also, you should use <label> tag for specifying the names of your checkboxes.
Lets have some clean markup :
<ul>
<li>
<label for="radeng">Male</label>
<input type="radio" id="radeng" name="gender" checked />
</li>
<li>
<label for="radnor">Female</label>
<input type="radio" id="radnor" name="gender" />
</li>
</ul>
Demo
So by specifying same values for name attribute groups your radio buttons.
Give same name for the both radio button like below:
<form>
<input type="radio" name="gender" id="radeng" checked />Male
<br/>
<input type="radio" name="gender" id="radnor" />Female
</form>
In my web page I have placed some radio buttons. But these buttons are not working properly. I can check multiple buttons.
code:
<label for="abc" style="margin-top:-20px;margin-left:40px">xyz</label>
<input type="radio" id="abc" name="abc" >
<label for="bcd" style="margin-top:-20px;margin-left:40px">abc</label>
<input type="radio" id="bcd" name="bcd" >
<label for="efg" style="margin-top:-20px;margin-left:40px">ccc</label>
<input type="radio" id="efg" name="efg" >
fiddle
I want to check only one button. Please any one help me.
Because you've different value for name attribute, they should have a common name value, just like you group items.. for example
<input type="radio" name="group1" />
<input type="radio" name="group1" />
<input type="radio" name="group1" />
<!-- You can select any one from each group -->
<input type="radio" name="group2" />
<input type="radio" name="group2" />
<input type="radio" name="group2" />
Demo
<label for="abc" style="margin-top:-20px;margin-left:40px">xyz</label>
<input type="radio" id="abc" name="abc" >
<label for="bcd" style="margin-top:-20px;margin-left:40px">abc</label>
<input type="radio" id="bcd" name="abc" >
<label for="efg" style="margin-top:-20px;margin-left:40px">ccc</label>
<input type="radio" id="efg" name="abc" >
All inputs must have the same name="" attribute value
Radio buttons which are grouped together must have the same case-sensitive name property.
<label for="input1">First Input</label>
<input type="radio" id="input1" name="inputGroup" >
<label for="input2">Second Input</label>
<input type="radio" id="input2" name="inputGroup" >
<label for="input3">Third Input</label>
<input type="radio" id="input3" name="inputGroup" >
JSFiddle demo.
From the HTML specification:
Radio buttons are like checkboxes except that when several share the same control name, they are mutually exclusive.
Give same name to all radio button from which you want to select one option
<label for="abc" style="margin-top:-20px;margin-left:40px">xyz</label>
<input type="radio" id="abc" name="abc" >
<label for="bcd" style="margin-top:-20px;margin-left:40px">abc</label>
<input type="radio" id="bcd" name="abc" >
<label for="efg" style="margin-top:-20px;margin-left:40px">ccc</label>
<input type="radio" id="efg" name="abc" >
Now it will work properly
Name attribute needs to be the same. Name groups radio buttons together to make them one unit.
Name them the same way, and in your php or receiving code it will be something like
$_POST['name'] = 'value of selected radio button'
The name setting tells which group of radio buttons the field belongs to. When you select one button, all other buttons in the same group are unselected.
If you couldn't define which group the current button belongs to, you could only have one group of radio buttons on each page.
e.g :
<input type="radio" name="fruit1" value="Apple"> Apple <br>
<input type="radio" name="fruit1" value="Apricot" checked> Apricot <br>
<input type="radio" name="fruit1" value="Avocado"> Avocado
<hr>
<input type="radio" name="fruit2" value="Banana"> Banana<br>
<input type="radio" name="fruit2" value="Breadfruit"> Breadfruit<br>
<input type="radio" name="fruit2" value="Bilberry" checked> Bilberry
Give the name the same attribute.
The checked attribute can be used to indicate which value should be selected. Somewhere in your syntax for the value you want checked write checked="checked"
I reached this thread searching the keywords "html radio not working". After reviewing my code, I noticed that I used a javascript method "event.preventDefault();" in this custom function that I've made where the HTML node that triggered this event in that custom function were the "not working" radio parent. So I solved my problem removing the "event.preventDefault();". If someone reached this thread in the future, I hope this help you somehow (even for debbuging purposes).
I want to have a radio button with images instead of text. So I want to have an image of male and female instead of a text of male and female. Can this actually be done using a standard HTML or do I have to use jQuery? How do I do this?
Use <label> elements to host your images, like this:
<input type="radio" name="sex" value="male" id="male-radio">
<label for="male-radio"><img src="male.gif"></label>
<input type="radio" name="sex" value="female" id="female-radio">
<label for="female-radio"><img src="female.gif"></label>

I'm using the jQuery Validate to validate my form. It's a form with text and radio types and also with a selector.
The validation is working great, but when validating radio buttons the error div shows in between the buttons and not at the end of the row of them.
How can I place this div in a different position without moving it for the rest of the form's fields?
YOu can use the code from this exemple: http://jquery.bassistance.de/validate/demo/radio-checkbox-select-demo.html
<fieldset>
<legend>Gender</legend>
<label for="gender_male">
<input type="radio" id="gender_male" value="m" name="gender" validate="required:true" />
Male
</label>
<label for="gender_female">
<input type="radio" id="gender_female" value="f" name="gender"/>
Female
</label>
<label for="gender" class="error">Please select your gender</label>
</fieldset>
and change the
<label for="gender" class="error">position
