[Xerte] Access radio button state

[rupert rupert]

Thanks Julian,

Changing the condition to what you suggested means that the else statement
triggers now if the 5th radio button is selected or not, assuming I have
changed it correctly. Before it was always displaying false.

if (icon.parentNode.parentNode.childNodes[4].getValue() == false) {
  feedback.setText("false");
} else if (icon.parentNode.parentNode.childNodes[4].getValue() == true) {
  feedback.setText("true");
} else {
  feedback.setText("error");
}

Cheers
rup
