Clientcide has a getValue method that is a mess. When 1.2 deprecated this functionality I went to recreate it and make it better so that you could use it on radio buttons, for example. But radio buttons are a bizarre thing. If I do myRadioElement2.getValue() but a different radio than the element I just called the method is the selected one, what do you return? The value property of myRadioElement2 ? Or the value of the other radio button that is selected?
See what I mean?
