Hi, $$(radioTemplate.evaluate(selectThis))[0].writeAttribute(checked, checked);  // blows up! The first step is to find out *what part* is blowing up. Break the statement up into its component parts: var selector = radioTemplate.evaluate(selectThis); var list = $$(selector); var element =

Hi, This is one of those prototype things... selectID one would expect to be the elements ID and not its name! LOL I'm not following you. selectId is nothing to do with Prototype, it's the name you (or whoever the author of that code is) chose for the property name in that template. It's not

Thanks, and no apologies necessary for the *complete* response! Why global variables? This is a mixture of good code and bad code, so a hack together. I'm tending to develop more and more with objects now (thanks to Prototype) in my client-side code. I'm big on event driven code methods,
