How to check a radio button using JavaScript
To check a radio button using JavaScript, you need to access the radio button element and set its checked
property to true
. Here’s an example of how you can achieve this:
JavaScript
// HTML:
// <input type="radio" id="radioButton" name="options" value="option1">
// <input type="radio" id="radioButton2" name="options" value="option2">
// JavaScript:
const radioButton = document.getElementById("radioButton");
radioButton.checked = true;
In the above example, we access the radio button element using getElementById
and assign it to the radioButton
variable. Then, we set the checked
property of the radioButton
to true
to check the radio button programmatically.
Make sure to replace "radioButton"
with the actual id
of your radio button element. Additionally, note that radio buttons typically have a name
attribute to define a group of related options. If you have multiple radio buttons with the same name
, only one radio button within that group can be checked at a time.
