Are you using xhtml for a particular reason or feature? If you don't
need it, I would go with the simplest approach. I use xhtml, when I
am dynamically generating it from xml data, through xslt, which I
*THINK* was the original purpose of xhtml, but I could be wrong
there. Its just my opinion, but keep it as simple as possible, then
you are more likely to not find weird imcompatibility issues with
browsers after you launch your app. But if you need it for some
reason, by all means work it out.

So Rick are you suggesting that we really need to bag the whole
XHTML in
order to have full access across all browsers. If so that is a
major concern
and we need to deal with it right away. What have others seen.

Hey Scott,
I'm in agreement with you, the label feature is very handy. I use
it most of
the time on my forms.
But, I've seen instances when the user has certain toolbars or
spyware that
has stopped the browser from interpreting the label tag and other
tags as
well.

Hi Rick,
Call me old-school, but removing the label and trailing / at
the end and
sticking with pure HTML is the best fool-proof way!
Correct use of <label> is the key.
This is one of my pet peeves of websites, when programmers don't
use this
very helpful (standard HTML) tag.
Disclaimer: My intranet-only laden comment is not directed at
anyone in
particular.
But come on folks, you have to admit <label> is one hell of a useful
feature, eh?

This always works:
Page declare:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd";>
<td colspan="2">
<input name="address_type" type="radio" value="Home"
checked>Home
<input name="address_type" type="radio" value="Work">Business
</td>

Makes sense but it does not work even with the change in syntax.
This is how it looks in view source now
<td colspan="2"><label>
<input name="address_type" type="radio" value="Home"
checked="checked" />
Home
<input name="address_type" type="radio"
value="Work" />
Business
</label></td>
It is late and it has been a frustrating day so maybe I just
am not seeing
it.
<tr align="left">
<td colspan="2"><label>
<input type="radio" name="address_type"
value="Home" checked="checked" />
Home
<input type="radio" name="address_type"
value="Work" />
Business
</label></td>
</tr>

Then Phil and I are right.
You MUST validate xhtml!!!

Dan,
It will depend on the HTML definition on the page but try:
<input type="radio" name="address_type" value="Home"
checked="checked" />
