Hi there,

I'm working on a JavaScript function for a form.

My form is a survey with about four groups of radio buttons.

I want to create one function that I can return the value from one of the radio button groups by passing the name of the radio button group as a variable.

Here's a sample of the code to get the value of a radio group called "concerts" WITHOUT passing the radio group variable.

function get_radio_value()
{
for (var i = 0; i < document.orderform.concerts.length; i++)
{
if (document.orderform.concerts[i].checked)
{
var rValue = document.orderform.music[i].value;
}
}
}

I want to be able to use the above code for ALL my button groups by passing:
get_radio_value("concerts")

Would I have to use the EVAL function in some way?

Thanks
Donna

Try to make something like in this sample:

 
function getRadioValue (name) {
  var radioGroup = document.forms.orderform[name];
  for (var i = 0; i < radioGroup.length; i++) {
    if (radioGroup[i].checked) {
      var rValue = document.orderform.music[i].value;
    }
  } 
}

The call of function will look like:

 
getRadioValue ('concerts')
