  Assunto: [jQuery] Radio button checked status



  Banging my head against a wall here. I have this:

  <h3><span class="num">1</span>Date Range</h3>
  <p><input type="radio" class="period" name="period" value="daily">
  Daily</p>
  <p><input type="radio" class="period" name="period" value="weekly">
  Weekly</p>
  <p><input type="radio" class="period" name="period" value="monthly">
  Monthly</p>

  and I'm trying to get checked status with this:

  var period = $('input.period:checked').val();

  But, of course, no joy. Do *I* need to set the checked status of the
  radio button in order to use the :checked method, or doesn't the
  browser handle this on it's own? I thought browsers changed the
  "checked" attribute on their own. I'm totally stumped and cranky over
  here.

  Thanks!
