There is no reason to put brackets behind the name of the radio element. The brackets are neccessary for multi-select elements like checkboxes, but radio buttone are a single select element.
Your if statement should be a while loop. I'm sure you don't want to set this ( value=acct[] ) as the value for each radio button. Do it that way, and no matter which one is picked, it will be the same value. rija wrote:
