How can I know which radio button is selected via jQuery? - javascript

I have two radio buttons and want to post the value of the selected one.
How can I get the value with jQuery?
I can get all of them like this:
$("form :radio")
How do I know which one is selected?

To get the value of the selected radioName item of a form with id myForm:
$('input[name=radioName]:checked', '#myForm').val()
Here's an example:
$('#myForm input').on('change', function() {
alert($('input[name=radioName]:checked', '#myForm').val());
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<form id="myForm">
<fieldset>
<legend>Choose radioName</legend>
<label><input type="radio" name="radioName" value="1" /> 1</label> <br />
<label><input type="radio" name="radioName" value="2" /> 2</label> <br />
<label><input type="radio" name="radioName" value="3" /> 3</label> <br />
</fieldset>
</form>

Use this..
$("#myform input[type='radio']:checked").val();

If you already have a reference to a radio button group, for example:
var myRadio = $("input[name=myRadio]");
Use the filter() function, not find(). (find() is for locating child/descendant elements, whereas filter() searches top-level elements in your selection.)
var checkedValue = myRadio.filter(":checked").val();
Notes: This answer was originally correcting another answer that recommended using find(), which seems to have since been changed. find() could still be useful for the situation where you already had a reference to a container element, but not to the radio buttons, e.g.:
var form = $("#mainForm");
...
var checkedValue = form.find("input[name=myRadio]:checked").val();

This should work:
$("input[name='radioName']:checked").val()
Note the "" usaged around the input:checked and not '' like the Peter J's solution

You can use the :checked selector along with the radio selector.
$("form:radio:checked").val();

If you want just the boolean value, i.e. if it's checked or not try this:
$("#Myradio").is(":checked")

Get all radios:
var radios = jQuery("input[type='radio']");
Filter to get the one thats checked
radios.filter(":checked")

Another option is:
$('input[name=radioName]:checked').val()

$("input:radio:checked").val();

In my case I have two radio buttons in one form and I wanted to know the status of each button.
This below worked for me:
// get radio buttons value
console.log( "radio1: " + $('input[id=radio1]:checked', '#toggle-form').val() );
console.log( "radio2: " + $('input[id=radio2]:checked', '#toggle-form').val() );
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<form id="toggle-form">
<div id="radio">
<input type="radio" id="radio1" name="radio" checked="checked" /><label for="radio1">Plot single</label>
<input type="radio" id="radio2" name="radio"/><label for="radio2">Plot all</label>
</div>
</form>

Here's how I would write the form and handle the getting of the checked radio.
Using a form called myForm:
<form id='myForm'>
<input type='radio' name='radio1' class='radio1' value='val1' />
<input type='radio' name='radio1' class='radio1' value='val2' />
...
</form>
Get the value from the form:
$('#myForm .radio1:checked').val();
If you're not posting the form, I would simplify it further by using:
<input type='radio' class='radio1' value='val1' />
<input type='radio' class='radio1' value='val2' />
Then getting the checked value becomes:
$('.radio1:checked').val();
Having a class name on the input allows me to easily style the inputs...

try this one.
it worked for me
$('input[type="radio"][name="name"]:checked').val();

In a JSF generated radio button (using <h:selectOneRadio> tag), you can do this:
radiobuttonvalue = jQuery("input[name='form_id\:radiobutton_id']:checked").val();
where selectOneRadio ID is radiobutton_id and form ID is form_id.
Be sure to use name instead id, as indicated, because jQuery uses this attribute (name is generated automatically by JSF resembling control ID).

Also, check if the user does not select anything.
var radioanswer = 'none';
if ($('input[name=myRadio]:checked').val() != null) {
radioanswer = $('input[name=myRadio]:checked').val();
}

If you have Multiple radio buttons in single form then
var myRadio1 = $('input[name=radioButtonName1]');
var value1 = myRadio1.filter(':checked').val();
var myRadio2 = $('input[name=radioButtonName2]');
var value2 = myRadio2.filter(':checked').val();
This is working for me.

I wrote a jQuery plugin for setting and getting radio-button values. It also respects the "change" event on them.
(function ($) {
function changeRadioButton(element, value) {
var name = $(element).attr("name");
$("[type=radio][name=" + name + "]:checked").removeAttr("checked");
$("[type=radio][name=" + name + "][value=" + value + "]").attr("checked", "checked");
$("[type=radio][name=" + name + "]:checked").change();
}
function getRadioButton(element) {
var name = $(element).attr("name");
return $("[type=radio][name=" + name + "]:checked").attr("value");
}
var originalVal = $.fn.val;
$.fn.val = function(value) {
//is it a radio button? treat it differently.
if($(this).is("[type=radio]")) {
if (typeof value != 'undefined') {
//setter
changeRadioButton(this, value);
return $(this);
} else {
//getter
return getRadioButton(this);
}
} else {
//it wasn't a radio button - let's call the default val function.
if (typeof value != 'undefined') {
return originalVal.call(this, value);
} else {
return originalVal.call(this);
}
}
};
})(jQuery);
Put the code anywhere to enable the addin. Then enjoy! It just overrides the default val function without breaking anything.
You can visit this jsFiddle to try it in action, and see how it works.
Fiddle

$(".Stat").click(function () {
var rdbVal1 = $("input[name$=S]:checked").val();
}

This works fine
$('input[type="radio"][class="className"]:checked').val()
Working Demo
The :checked selector works for checkboxes, radio buttons, and select elements. For select elements only, use the :selected selector.
API for :checked Selector

To get the value of the selected radio that uses a class:
$('.class:checked').val()

I use this simple script
$('input[name="myRadio"]').on('change', function() {
var radioValue = $('input[name="myRadio"]:checked').val();
alert(radioValue);
});

Use this:
value = $('input[name=button-name]:checked').val();

DEMO : https://jsfiddle.net/ipsjolly/xygr065w/
$(function(){
$("#submit").click(function(){
alert($('input:radio:checked').val());
});
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<table>
<tr>
<td>Sales Promotion</td>
<td><input type="radio" name="q12_3" value="1">1</td>
<td><input type="radio" name="q12_3" value="2">2</td>
<td><input type="radio" name="q12_3" value="3">3</td>
<td><input type="radio" name="q12_3" value="4">4</td>
<td><input type="radio" name="q12_3" value="5">5</td>
</tr>
</table>
<button id="submit">submit</button>

If you only have 1 set of radio buttons on 1 form, the jQuery code is as simple as this:
$( "input:checked" ).val()

I've released a library to help with this. Pulls all possible input values, actually, but also includes which radio button was checked. You can check it out at https://github.com/mazondo/formalizedata
It'll give you a js object of the answers, so a form like:
<form>
<input type="radio" name"favorite-color" value="blue" checked> Blue
<input type="radio" name="favorite-color" value="red"> Red
</form>
will give you:
$("form").formalizeData()
{
"favorite-color" : "blue"
}

JQuery to get all the radio buttons in the form and the checked value.
$.each($("input[type='radio']").filter(":checked"), function () {
console.log("Name:" + this.name);
console.log("Value:" + $(this).val());
});

To retrieve all radio buttons values in JavaScript array use following jQuery code :
var values = jQuery('input:checkbox:checked.group1').map(function () {
return this.value;
}).get();

try it-
var radioVal = $("#myform").find("input[type='radio']:checked").val();
console.log(radioVal);

Another way to get it:
$("#myForm input[type=radio]").on("change",function(){
if(this.checked) {
alert(this.value);
}
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<form id="myForm">
<span><input type="radio" name="q12_3" value="1">1</span><br>
<span><input type="radio" name="q12_3" value="2">2</span>
</form>

From this question, I came up with an alternate way to access the currently selected input when you're within a click event for its respective label. The reason why is because the newly selected input isn't updated until after its label's click event.
TL;DR
$('label').click(function() {
var selected = $('#' + $(this).attr('for')).val();
...
});
$(function() {
// this outright does not work properly as explained above
$('#reported label').click(function() {
var query = $('input[name="filter"]:checked').val();
var time = (new Date()).toString();
$('.query[data-method="click event"]').html(query + ' at ' + time);
});
// this works, but fails to update when same label is clicked consecutively
$('#reported input[name="filter"]').on('change', function() {
var query = $('input[name="filter"]:checked').val();
var time = (new Date()).toString();
$('.query[data-method="change event"]').html(query + ' at ' + time);
});
// here is the solution I came up with
$('#reported label').click(function() {
var query = $('#' + $(this).attr('for')).val();
var time = (new Date()).toString();
$('.query[data-method="click event with this"]').html(query + ' at ' + time);
});
});
input[name="filter"] {
display: none;
}
#reported label {
background-color: #ccc;
padding: 5px;
margin: 5px;
border-radius: 5px;
cursor: pointer;
}
.query {
padding: 5px;
margin: 5px;
}
.query:before {
content: "on " attr(data-method)": ";
}
[data-method="click event"] {
color: red;
}
[data-method="change event"] {
color: #cc0;
}
[data-method="click event with this"] {
color: green;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<form id="reported">
<input type="radio" name="filter" id="question" value="questions" checked="checked">

Dynamic Checkbox selector in jquery

I have a series of dyanmic checkboxes which are creating at runtime but with differnt Ids like this (patter is same)
ModellingTagID_1201
ModellingTagID_1202
ModellingTagID_1203
ModellingTagID_1204
I want to know that above check box change or not? how can i make a dyanmic event with dynamic selector? so that i can get that particular checkbox value has changed? is this kind of thing possible?
$jqLib("#ModellingTagID_*").change(function(){
var lastState =$jqLib("#ModellingTagAlternativePlanning").prop("disabled");
$jqLib("#ModellingTagAlternativePlanning").prop("disabled",!lastState);
});
you can apply same class to all those checkboxes
<li><input type="checkbox" id="yourcbid1" name="x" value="1" class="yourcbclass" /> cb1</li>
<li><input type="checkbox" id="yourcbid2" name="x" value="1" class="yourcbclass" /> cb2</li>
and then you can make function for it's change event like this.
$(function(){
$('.yourcbclass').on('change', function() {
if($(this).is(':checked'))
{
//do your stuff here
}
});
});
see if this helps..
Very simple using this way:--
$("#envoyer").click(function(e) {
var myArray = [];
$(":checkbox:checked").each(function() {
myArray.push(this.value);
});
if(myArray == ''){
alert('Please check');
}else{
alert("Checked: " + myArray.join(","));
}
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<html>
<body>
one<input type="checkbox" name='checkbox0' value="one_name" checked>
two<input type="checkbox" name='checkbox1' value="one_name1">
three<input type="checkbox" name='checkbox2' value="one_name2">
<input type="button" id="envoyer" value="Envoyer Reponse" />
</body>
</html>
From what I understand, your issue is to distinguish the unique id of the checkbox, which is being, changed. To achieve this, you can simply add a common class to all the elements, alongwith unique random ids.
cb_1<input type="checkbox" class="someclass" id='ModellingTagID_1201' value="value_1" checked>
cb_2<input type="checkbox" class="someclass" id='ModellingTagID_1202' value="value_2">
cb_3<input type="checkbox" class="someclass" id='ModellingTagID_1203' value="value_3">
And then you can simply bind a change event listener to the common class, and fetch the value of the random id, which has been changed, from inside the event listener.
$(document).ready(function(){
$('.someclass').on('change', function() {
alert($(this).attr("id"));
});
});

validating at least one checkbox selected on dynamically added fields

If you're dynamically adding form fields to an existing form, what's the best way of adding validation?
Consider this fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/yWGK4/
<form action="#" method="post">
<div id="parent">
<div class="child">
<input type="checkbox" name="box1[]" value="1" /> 1
<input type="checkbox" name="box1[]" value="2" /> 2
<input type="checkbox" name="box1[]" value="3" /> 3
</div>
</div>
</form>
<button id="addBoxes">Add Boxes</button>
<script>
$(function() {
var parentdiv = $('#parent');
var m = $('#parent div.child').size() + 1;
$('#addBoxes').on('click', function() {
$('<div class="child"><input type="checkbox" name="box'+m+'[]" value="1" /> 1 <input type="checkbox" name="box'+m+'[]" value="2" /> 2 <input type="checkbox" name="box'+m+'[]" value="3" /> 3 </div>').appendTo(parentdiv);
m++;
return false;
});
});
</script>
On that form I'm adding new checkbox groups, and want to make sure at least one box from each group is checked (not one box across all groups). Anyone got any clever methods? Everything I've looked at would get very complicated due to the dynamically added fields.
It doesn't matter if the checkboxes are dynamic when validating on submit etc. so something like this would check if at least one checkbox per .child is checked :
$('form').on('submit', function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
var valid = true;
$('.child').each(function() {
if ( ! $('[type="checkbox"]:checked', this).length ) // no box checked
valid = false;
});
if (valid) {
this.submit();
}else{
alert('error');
}
});
FIDDLE
If you want to check it using jQuery you can use `.each()
$(".child").each(function(){
var $this = $(this);
var checked = $this.find("input:checked");
if( checked.lenght == 0 ) {
alert("This group is not valid");
}
});
You can find more about this jQuery functions in this links:
each()
find()
here's what I came up with. Basically you loop over the .child groups and test if they have a checkbox in the checked state..
$('#checkBoxes').on('click', function(){
var uncheckedgroups = new Array();
$('.child').each(function(childindex, childelement){
var checkFound = 0;
$('.child').each(function(index, element){
if($(element).is(':checked')){
checkFound = 1;
}
});
if(checkFound == 0){
uncheckedgroups.push(childindex);
}
});
if(uncheckedgroups.length > 0){
alert("the following groups have no checked checkbox: " +
uncheckedgroups.join(','));
}
});

jQuery - Checking Check Box Values (Chaining jQuery functions Vs If Statment)

I have multiple check boxes and wanting to get an overall value for them all.
For example if one is checked then value is true/selected.
If none are checked then false/unchecked.
My HTML is:
<input id="one" type="checkbox">
<input id="two" type="checkbox">
<input id="three" type="checkbox">
<input id="four" type="checkbox">
<button onclick="check();">Is checked (jQuery Chained)</button>
<button onclick="check2();">Is checked(Big If Statement)</button>
My JavaScript/jQuery is:
function check() {
var booleee = $('#one,#two,#three,#four').attr('checked');
alert("Checked: " + booleee);
}
function check2() {
if ($('#one').attr('checked') || $('#two').attr('checked') || $('#three').attr('checked') || $('#four').attr('checked')) {
alert("Checked: true");
}
alert("Checked: false");
}
Js Fiddle: Click Here
Please note, I have solved this problem. This question is more to help me understand why my checked2() function works and my check() doesnt.
var booleee = $('#one,#two,#three,#four').attr('checked'); checks only whether the first (in this case #one) checkbox is checked.
From the doc for attr
Get the value of an attribute for the first element in the set of
matched elements.
it should be
var booleee = $('#one,#two,#three,#four').filter(':checked').length > 0;
Also in new versions(>1.6) you need to use the property 'checked' (.prop('checked')) instead of attr in the alternative you have a :checked filter so .is(':checked').
Because it's not checking all the elements in the selector.
to make it work
function check() {
var booleee =$("input:checkbox:checked").length > 0;
alert("Checked: " + booleee);
}
To more specific selection add form id in selector
DEMO
A better approach: http://jsfiddle.net/arvind07/ZP78F/
function check() {
var checks = $('input:checkbox');
var checked = 0;
checks.each(function() {
if ($(this).is(":checked")) {
checked = 1;
return false;
}
});
if (checked) {
alert("Checked");
} else {
alert("Not checked");
}
}
in html set checked property
<input id="one" type="checkbox" checked="checked">
<input id="two" type="checkbox" checked="checked">
<input id="three" type="checkbox" checked="checked">
<input id="four" type="checkbox" checked="checked">
you not defined checked so it show undefined because it cant read this attribute and when you call second function then only false come in alert because their checkbox checked attribute not find
see demo
var checked = $(':checkbox:checked').length > 0;

Finding value of a radio in a form after checked? Javascript DOM

I currently have this form, and I am trying to get the value of the radio buttons when it is checked but I continually keep on having an error, what may be the problem with the code below?
html
<form name="radioset2" id="radioset2" action="survey.html">
<fieldset>
<span class = "question"> question1 </span>
<div id = "radio1">
<label for="r_q1_id">Yes</label>
<input id="r_q1_id" type="radio" name="r_q1_name" value="yes" />
</div>
<div id = "radio2">
<label for="r_q2_id">No</label>
<input id="r_q2_id" type="radio" name="r_q1_name" value="no" />
</div>
</fieldset>
</form>
javascript
function validRadio() {
var radio_buttons = document.getElementsByName.elements['r_q1_name'];
for(var x=0; x<radio_buttons.length; x++) {
if(radio_buttons[x].checked) {
alert(radio_buttons[x].value + " button is checked");
} else {
alert(radio_buttons[x].value + " button is not checked");
}
}
return false;
}
If you are targetting modern browsers, you can simply use the :checked CSS selector with the querySelector function to get the value of the checked input. That would remove the need of looping over the inputs.
http://jsfiddle.net/4uy2V/
var val = document.querySelector('[name=r_q1_name]:checked').value;

Calling onclick on a radiobutton list using javascript

How do I call onclick on a radiobutton list using javascript?
How are you generating the radio button list? If you're just using HTML:
<input type="radio" onclick="alert('hello');"/>
If you're generating these via something like ASP.NET, you can add that as an attribute to each element in the list. You can run this after you populate your list, or inline it if you build up your list one by one:
foreach(ListItem RadioButton in RadioButtons){
RadioButton.Attributes.Add("onclick", "alert('hello');");
}
More info: http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/event_onclick.asp
To trigger the onClick event on a radio button, invoke the click() method on its DOM element:
document.getElementById("radioButton").click()
using jQuery:
$("#radioButton").click()
AngularJs:
angular.element('#radioButton').trigger('click')
I agree with #annakata that this question needs some more clarification, but here is a very, very basic example of how to set up an onclick event handler for the radio buttons:
window.onload = function() {
var ex1 = document.getElementById('example1');
var ex2 = document.getElementById('example2');
var ex3 = document.getElementById('example3');
ex1.onclick = handler;
ex2.onclick = handler;
ex3.onclick = handler;
}
function handler() {
alert('clicked');
}
<input type="radio" name="example1" id="example1" value="Example 1" />
<label for="example1">Example 1</label>
<input type="radio" name="example2" id="example2" value="Example 2" />
<label for="example1">Example 2</label>
<input type="radio" name="example3" id="example3" value="Example 3" />
<label for="example1">Example 3</label>
The problem here is that the rendering of a RadioButtonList wraps the individual radio buttons (ListItems) in span tags and even when you assign a client-side event handler to the list item directly using Attributes it assigns the event to the span. Assigning the event to the RadioButtonList assigns it to the table it renders in.
The trick here is to add the ListItems on the aspx page and not from the code behind. You can then assign the JavaScript function to the onClick property. This blog post; attaching client-side event handler to radio button list by Juri Strumpflohner explains it all.
This only works if you know the ListItems in advance and does not help where the items in the RadioButtonList need to be dynamically added using the code behind.
I think all of the above might work. In case what you need is simple, I used:
function checkRadio(name) {
if (name == "one") {
console.log("Choice: ", name);
document.getElementById("one-variable-equations").checked = true;
document.getElementById("multiple-variable-equations").checked = false;
} else if (name == "multiple") {
console.log("Choice: ", name);
document.getElementById("multiple-variable-equations").checked = true;
document.getElementById("one-variable-equations").checked = false;
}
}
<div class="radio-buttons-choice" id="container-3-radio-buttons-choice">
<input type="radio" name="one" id="one-variable-equations" onclick="checkRadio(name)"><label>Only one</label><br>
<input type="radio" name="multiple" id="multiple-variable-equations" onclick="checkRadio(name)"><label>I have multiple</label>
</div>
Try the following solution
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.radio').click(function() {
document.getElementById('price').innerHTML = $(this).val();
});
});
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id="variant">
<label><input type="radio" name="toggle" class="radio" value="19,99€"><span>A</span></label>
<label><input type="radio" name="toggle" class="radio" value="<<<"><span>B</span></label>
<label><input type="radio" name="toggle" class="radio" value="xxx"><span>C</span></label>
<p id="price"></p>
</div>
The other answers did not work for me, so I checked Telerik's official documentation it says you need to find the button and call the click() function:
function KeyPressed(sender, eventArgs) {
var button = $find("<%= RadButton1.ClientID %>");
button.click();
}
