Hey Mark, Thanks. I understand. I'm actually a Cold Fusion programmer.
I've tried what you suggested but can't seem to get it work - code attached. However, I can display the radio button if I use the $_POST function. I'm not sure if it's the version of php I'm using. Stats - windows 2000 Sp1, Apache 2.039, php 4.2.2. Thanks for taking the time!!
