Jquery-ajax parse xml and set radiobutton

Question

hi everybody, I've a form with some radio button like this:

<input type="radio" name="leva" value="a"><input type="radio" name="leva" value="b">

with ajax post method I receive value of the radio. The question is how can I set correct radio value to checked?

thanks in advance ciao h.

Answer 1

You just need to find the right button using an attribute equals selector for the value, then set checked attribute using .attr(), like this:

$("input:radio[name='leva'][value='"+ returnedValue +"']").attr('checked', true);

The browser will handle un-selecting the other options since it's a radio button, and if no button is found with the value...well, like all jQuery selectors, it just won't have any effect, which is usually what's desired.

Answer 2

That's may be done also for id or I have to use name?

Thanks again.

ciao
