required radiobuttons in a form

[rumbleDom]

Hello ...
if I need a radio from a user in a form, how can I do that?
This code is not working :-(

Code:

<input type="Radio" name="Gender" value="1" checked="checked" class="easyui-validatebox" required="true">

If you want to validate if a field is selected. Use the checkbox field instead. The validation on a checkbox field is not supported directly but extending a new validator is possible.

Code:

$.extend($.fn.validatebox.defaults.rules, {  
	checked: {  
		validator: function(value, param){  
			var input = $(param[0]);
			input.unbind('.cc').bind('click.cc',function(){
				$(this).focus();
			});
			return input.is(':checked');  
		},  
		message: 'Please check this field.'  
	}  
});

Code:

<input id="gg" type="checkbox" name="Gender" value="1" checked="checked" class="easyui-validatebox" validType="checked['#gg']">

I have made a validator for radio buttons.

Code:

	$.extend($.fn.validatebox.defaults.rules, {
		requireRadio: {  
			validator: function(value, param){  
				var input = $(param[0]);
				input.off('.requireRadio').on('click.requireRadio',function(){
					$(this).focus();
				});
				return $(param[0] + ':checked').val() != undefined;
			},  
			message: 'Please choose option for {1}.'  
		}  
	});

it used by adding it to only the first radio in a group.  adding to all is no harm, it just wastes CPU.

Code:

<input class="easyui-validatebox" type="radio" name="yes_no" value="1" data-options="validType:'requireRadio[\'#ff input[name=yes_no]\', \'Yes or no\']'">Yes

<input class="easyui-validatebox" type="radio" name="yes_no" value="0">No
