Brian:
Thank you *so* much for your help with this!
I found that I could even do:
$('#selected_courses input:radio:checked[name="' + curr_ordinal +
'"]')
I'm skeptical about your explanation of the value for checked because:
1) in Firebug's DOM inspector the value shown for the Javascript
property
of checked is true;
2) my use of true worked in the later case of:
$sel_courses.find('input[name="' + curr_ordinal + '"]
[checked=true]')
My guess without checking is that "checked" is the correct value for
HTML mark-up (and perhaps CSS) but is not the JS value.
But you've helped me enormously and I'm very grateful!
