Inserting a radio button

Use radio buttons when the user must select only one choice from a set of options. Radio buttons are typically used in groups. All radio buttons in a group must have the same name and must contain different field values.

To insert radio buttons:

1	Place the insertion point inside the form outline, then do one of the following:
	Choose Insert > Form Object > Radio Button.
	In the Objects panel's Forms category, click the Insert Radio Button icon
2	In the Property inspector's RadioButton Name field, type a descriptive name for the group of choices.
	Note: If you create multiple radio button interactions in a form, be sure each set of radio buttons has a unique name.
3	In the Checked Value field, type the value you want sent to the server-side application or processing script when a user selects this radio button. For example, you might type skiing in the CheckedValue field to indicate a user chose skiing.
4	For Initial State, click Checked if you want an option to appear selected when the form first loads in the browser.

Tip: To add additional radio buttons to the group, select the original radio button, then Control-drag (Windows) or Option-drag (Macintosh) and change the Checked Value field for each new button.
