Thanks for the reply...

I found another example on the web while trying to still working on solving
this and Mark Baker had a post on another site that had a great example. So
the fix for me was.


<? $check0 = $check1 = "";
if ($digdocs == "Yes") { $check0 = " CHECKED"; } else { $check1 = "
CHECKED"; }
echo '<INPUT TYPE="RADIO" NAME="ud_digdocs" VALUE="Yes"'.$check0.'>Yes<BR>';
echo '<INPUT TYPE="RADIO" NAME="ud_digdocs" VALUE="No"'.$check1.'>No'; ?>

This allows the update page to read the values of the radio button, that is
presnetly stored in the database.

Thanks again!
