Radio Button Issues

Hi GUYS,

I Have A Scenario Here- I Have A Set Of Radio Buttons On One Of The Pages (basically A Cgi) And I Use Javascript In My Cgi To Iterate Thru The Radio Button List. When I Submit The Page, I Get The Selected Radio Value. However, When I Go Back(or Hit The Back Button) And Select Another Radio, The Previous Selection Is Lost
Could Somebody Give An Idea On How To Handle This In Javascript Or Cgi?

Thanks,
A

Are you doing a javascript&colon;back or a submission the form again to come on the initial screen?

On submission of A.cgi, you need to store the selected values in hidden form fields or javascript fields along with a flag if the form is submitted once or not.

If form is submitted you need to read the values from hidden fileds and assign them to respective fileds, so that it can be retained.
