The radio button does not show up as checked by default. I started off without a default choice doing some very simple js validation and it wasn't working. So I opted to just use default values until I figured that out and discovered that something weird is going on.
The markup is valid and I've tried in FF, Safari and Chrome. Nothing works.
I think it's a conflict with the jQuery library because the problem goes away when I remove the call script.
<label>Do you want to accept American Express?</label> Yes_x000D_
<input id="amex" style="width: 20px;" type='radio' name='Contact0_AmericanExpress' value='1' /> No_x000D_
<input style="width: 20px;" type='radio' name='Contact0_AmericanExpress' class='check' value='0' checked="checked" />This question is related to

Radio inputs must be inside of a form for 'checked' to work.
just add checked attribute to each radio that you want to have default checked
try this :
<input style="width: 20px;" type="radio" name="Contact0_AmericanExpress" class="check" checked/>
Replace checked="checked" with checked={true}. Or you could even shorten it to just checked.
This is because the expected value type of the checked prop is a boolean. not a string.
I could repro this by setting the name of input tag the same for two groups of input like below:
<body>
<div>
<div>
<h3>Header1</h3>
</div>
<div>
<input type="radio" name="gender" id="male_1" value="male"> Male<br>
<input type="radio" name="gender" id="female_1" value="female" checked="checked"> Female<br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div>
<h3>Header2</h3>
</div>
<div>
<input type="radio" name="gender" id="male_2" value="male"> Male<br>
<input type="radio" name="gender" id="female_2" value="female" checked="checked"> Female<br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</div>
</div>
</body>

The following two solutions both fix the problem:
form tag instead of div tag for one of the groups (can't really figure out the real reason why this would solve the problem. Would love to hear some opinions on this!)This might be it:
Is there a bug with radio buttons in jQuery 1.9.1?
In short: Don't use attr() but prop() for checking radio buttons. God I hate JS...
You're using non-standard xhtml code (values should be framed with double quotes, not single quotes)
Try this:
<form>
<label>Do you want to accept American Express?</label>
Yes<input id="amex" style="width: 20px;" type="radio" name="Contact0_AmericanExpress" />
No<input style="width: 20px;" type="radio" name="Contact0_AmericanExpress" class="check" checked="checked" />
</form>
hi I think if you put id attribute for the second input and give it a unique id value it will work
<label>Do you want to accept American Express?</label>
Yes<input id="amex" style="width: 20px;" type='radio' name='Contact0_AmericanExpress' value='1'/>
No<input style="width: 20px;" id="amex0" type='radio' name='Contact0_AmericanExpress' class='check' value='0' checked="checked"/>

});Your code is right, try to debug your JQuery script to find the issue! If you're using FF you can install an extension to debug JS (and JQuery) it's called FireBug.
Just copied your code into: http://jsfiddle.net/fY4F9/
No is checked by default. Do you have any javascript running that would effect the radio box?
The jQuery documentation provides a detailed explanation for checked property vs attribute.
Accordingly, here is another way to retrieve selected radio button value
var accepted = $('input[name="Contact0_AmericanExpress"]:checked').val();
also try this way
$('input:radio[name="name"][id="abcd'+no+'"]').attr("checked", "checked");
if there is <form /> tag then ("checked", true) otherwise ("checked", "checked")
The ultimate JavaScript workaround to this annoying issue -
Simply wrap the jQuery command in a setTimeout. The interval can be extremely small, I use 10 milliseconds and it seems to be working great. The delay is so small that it is virtually undetectable to the end users.
setTimeout(function(){
$("#radio-element").attr('checked','checked');
},10);
This will also work with
$("#radio-element").trigger('click');$("#radio-element").attr('checked',true);$("#radio-element").attr('checked',ANYTHING_THAT_IS_NOT_FALSE);Hacky...hacky...hacky...hacky... Yes I know... hence this is a workaround....
If you have multiple of the same name with the checked attribute it will take the last checked radio on the page.

Yes<input id="amex" style="width: 20px;" type="radio" name="Contact0_AmericanExpress" /> _x000D_
maybe<input id="amex" style="width: 20px;" type="radio" name="Contact0_AmericanExpress" checked="checked" /> _x000D_
No<input style="width: 20px;" type="radio" name="Contact0_AmericanExpress" class="check" checked="checked" />_x000D_
</form>Hey I was also facing similar problem, in an ajax generated page.. I took generated source using Webdeveloper pluggin in FF, and checked all the inputs in the form and found out that there was another checkbox inside a hidden div(display:none) with same ID, Once I changed the id of second checkbox, it started working.. You can also try that.. and let me know the result.. cheers
