Server side radio button validation

[sully]

Could someone please help me to figure out what the code would be to server side validate radio button input.

Ive followed the tutorial and have it working with all the elements in my form but cant seem to find any information on how to valiate radio buttons.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi Sully,

Actually, radio buttons should work just the same as other fields. e.g. if your radio buttons have name attributes of "my_radios", you could just enter:

Code:

rules.push("required,my_radios,Please select at least one radio button");

If still no luck, post the relevant HTML and describe what validation rules you're trying to run on them.

thanks for the reply but i got this figured out. after following the validation tutorial i was under the impression that all the code in the sample form was for the validation, not just the rules. so, i included the code to refill the form in my document thinking that it was part of the validation.

Ah gotcha. Glad you sorted it out!
