Attribute not selected by default?

[Daveb]

Hi Guys.

http://www.baypressservices.com/acat...-solution.html

For some reason, on this new page, the first permutation or attribute is not selected by default, and the order process cannot proceed.

Anybody see what I am doing wrong?

Thanks
Dave

You may want to check the Component under General there is an option for "Is Optional".

Your generated HTML looks weird. I see a commented out set of Attributes / Choices that do have the checked attribute on the first radio.

Then another block of the same Attributes / Choices without the checked attribute on the first radio.

Some thing's modified your layouts.

Example of generated code (lines removed for clarity):

<div id="idv_xrite ex old_1_Table">
CODE COMMENTED OUT
<!--<table border="0" cellpadding="0" 
	width="500"
 cellspacing="0">
<tr><td>

<input type="radio" name="v_xrite ex old_1" value="1" checked="checked" >
   
	   eXact without Bluetooth
   ($3,995.00)
</td></tr><tr><td>
input type="radio" name="v_xrite ex old_1" value="2"  >
	   eXact with Bluetooth
   ($4,125.00)
</td></tr><tr><td>
.
.
.
</td></tr></table>-->
COMMENTED OUT CODE ENDS

SAME CODE BUT NO checked="checked"
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" 
	width="500"
 cellspacing="0">
<tr><td>
<input type="radio" name="v_xrite ex old_1" value="1"  >
 	   eXact without Bluetooth
   ($3,995.00)
</td></tr><tr><td>
<input type="radio" name="v_xrite ex old_1" value="2"  >
 	   eXact with Bluetooth
    ($4,125.00)
</td></tr><tr><td>
    .
    .
    .
</td></tr></table>

</div>

Probably the code that checks the first radio doesn't run for the second lump because it's already checked said radio (in the commented out bit).

[NormanRouxel]

No probably. Definitely. Snippet of code from layout Radio Button Permutation Entry:

<actinic:block php="true" >
   echo ($bOptionSelected == false) ? 'checked="checked"' : '';
   $bOptionSelected = true;
</actinic:block>

So that line in red will be preventing the radio from being checked when the visible bit of code is generated.

Solution: Delete instead of commenting out the first block of code.
