Since newcol is the ID of the radio button  You can simply use it as below         newcol  attr  checked  true

Your selector looks for the descendant of a input radio name cols  element that has the id of newcol  well the value of that variable    Try this instead  since you re selecting by ID anyway            newcol  prop  checked  true     Here is a demo  http   jsfiddle net jasper n8CdM 1   Also  as of jQuery 1 6 the perferred method of altering a property is  prop    http   api jquery com prop

In my case  radio button value is fetched from database and then set into the form  Following code works for me     quot input name name of radio button fields  value  quot    saved value comes from database    quot   quot   prop  checked   true

The chosen answer works in this case   But the question was about finding the element based on radiogroup and dynamic id  and the answer can also leave the displayed radio button unaffected    This line does selects exactly what was asked for while showing the change on screen as well      input radio name cols  id    newcol       click

In your selector you seem to be attempting to fetch some nested element of your radio button with a given id  If you want to check a radio button  you should select this radio button in the selector and not something else      input radio name  cols     attr  checked    checked      This assumes that you have the following radio button in your markup    lt input type  radio  name  cols  value  1    gt    If your radio button had an id    lt input type  radio  name  cols  value  1  id  myradio    gt    you could directly use an id selector       myradio   attr  checked    checked

Why do you need  input radio name cols    Don t know your html  but assuming that ids are unique  you can simply do this         newcol  prop  checked   true

Try this           newcol  attr  checked    checked      I ve had issues with attr  checked   true   so I tend to use the above instead   Also  if you have the ID then you don t need that other stuff for selection  An ID is unique
