The "label" of the radio button doesn't matter one bit to JMeter. What matters is the "name" attribute, and the "value" attribute.
A radio button: <input type="radio" name="recordID" value="233"> In JMeter, to find this value, setup an argument named "recordID", and a value of "\d+" (matches all integers). If you want to match "233", then your value is "233" rather than "\d+". I don't think I'm really understanding your question anymore, though. -Mike > -----Original Message----- > From: Michael Morris [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, February 26, 2002 9:52 AM > To: 'JMeter Users List' > Subject: RE: Parsing for variable > > > Mike, > > Thanks for your response. > > I think you may be on to something here, I checked the HTML > of the previous > request.
