Radio button validation

Hi,

I am having a slight problem validating radio buttons using customvalidator.

My buttons generated HTML look like...
<input id="MemberPage_MinorWorks_SpareLoadYesRadioButton" type="radio"
name="MemberPage:MinorWorks:SpareLoadCapacity"
value="SpareLoadYesRadioButton" />

<input id="MemberPage_MinorWorks_SpareLoadNoRadioButton" type="radio"
name="MemberPage:MinorWorks:SpareLoadCapacity"
value="SpareLoadNoRadioButton" />

In my JS, I have...

function CircuitTestedCheck(oSrc, args){
if(document.all['<%=SpareLoadYesRadioButton.ClientID%>'].checked == false
&& document.all['<%=SpareLoadNoRadioButton.ClientID%>'].checked == false){
args.IsValid = false;
}
else
{
args.IsValid = true;
}
}

which is referenced by the custom validator.

The ClientID when generated follows the ID not the name of the control, but
I think the JS will require the name, which looks very different.

I was doing exactly this for checkboxes. What should I do for the radio
buttons?

Thanks.

Of course...

Why didn't I think of that. I will try it.

Thank you.

Use document.getElementById instead of document.all
