How can I determine the SelectedValue of a RadioButtonList in JavaScript?

Question

I have an ASP.NET web page with a databound RadioButtonList. I do not know how many radio buttons will be rendered at design time. I need to determine the SelectedValue on

Answer 1

I would like to add the most straightforward solution to this problem:

var reasons= document.getElementsByName("<%=RadioButtonList1.UniqueID%>");
var answer;
for (var j = 0; j < reasons.length; j++) {
    if (reason[j].checked) {
        answer = reason[j].value;
    }
}

UniqueID is the property that gave you the name of the inputs inside the control, so you can just check them really easily.
