The code you've provided works just fine - here's a test-case: http://jsfiddle.net/oskar/tM29a/

Answer 2

window.addEvent('domready', function() {
   var chk="1";
   if(chk==1){
      $('edit-gender-0').set('checked',true);
   } else if(chk==2){
      $('edit-gender-1').set('checked',true);
});

don't forget to add }); at the end of the addEvent function.
