Radio Element - #radio {}

The radio element produces an HTML radio button.

Usage

   [
      #radio { name=fruit, text="Apple", checked=true },
      #radio { name=fruit, text="Orange" },
      #radio { name=fruit, text="Banana", value="banana" }
   ].

Attributes

• body (Nitrogen element or list of Nitrogen Elements) - Radio button label either in HTML or Nitrogen elements.

• text (string) - The radio button's label.

• html_encode (boolean) - Set to true to safely html-encode the text label.

• value (string) - The value to be submitted for this radio button in postbacks if it is selected.

• label_class - (\atom, string or list of atoms and strings) :: A class applied to the connected <label> element if text or body are provided.

• postback (Erlang term) - If set, clicking on the checkbox will initiate a Nitrogen postback with the supplied term.

• checked (boolean) - True if the radio button should be checked.

• name (string) - The name attribute of the radio button. If this is not contained within a #radiogroup{} element, then name must be specified, as name determines the "group" of the radio buttons (that is, when one member of a radio group is selected, the others are unselected).

• html_name (string) - The name attribute of the checkbox. ( This does essentially the same thing as the name attribute, but is semantically different for use with the RESTful elements, as all RESTful elements shre the html_name attributes. If you're not sure, just use name)
