HTML form radio buttons
A radiobutton is a set of buttons with only one selectd state. When a radiobutton is selected the other ones are unselected. That's why they behave like the "radio buttons" of a car for sample. It is defined with the input tag using the attribute type and the value "radio". The name must be the same for all the bounded radio buttons. Only the selected radio button is sent to the server.
You can force a default selected button using the checked attribute.
