Thanks Kyle

I understand that you do not offer custom coding assistance, but this is the developer forum and I am using 'out of the box' functionality.

This should just work. And it does for standard text fields but I cannot get it to work for Radio buttons, so I really do still need yours, Beat's etc... assistance please

Kind regards

Using this as a test:

$( '#username' ).val( '[post_cb_gender]' );

This inserts the value of the cb_gender field into a text field.

The results are "on".

So regardless of "a Man" or "a Female" being selected it says "on" as the name of the field is cb_gender.

How can I catch the value?

Thanks in advance

I have got it working! Through all my testing back and forth and amendments the value option was altered and was misspelt in the original custom form.

FOR THE RECORD:

$( '#username' ).val( '[post_username]' );
if ( '[post_cb_gender]' == 'male' ) {
$( '#cbf322' ).attr( 'checked', 'checked' );
} else if ( '[post_cb_gender]' == 'female' ) {
$( '#cbf323' ).attr( 'checked', 'checked' );
}

This format now works using:

<form id="reg_mod" action="index.php?option=com_comprofiler&amp;task=registers" method="post"><input type="hidden" name="option" value="com_comprofiler" /><input type="hidden" name="task" value="registers" /><input type="hidden" name="ismodule" value="yes" />
<div><label for="reg_mod_name">User Name</label><input id="reg_mod_username" class="MyClass" type="text" name="username" size="14" />
</div>
<div><label for="reg_mod_cbf322">Gender&nbsp;</label>Male&nbsp;<input id="reg_mod_cbf322" class="MyCheck" type="radio" name="cb_gender" value="male" />&nbsp;Female&nbsp;<input id="reg_mod_cbf323" class="MyCheck" type="radio" name="cb_gender" value="female" />
</div>
<div><br /><input class="button" type="submit" value="Register" />
</div>
</form>

As the form.

Thanks for all your help Kyle.

Kind regards
