Radio buttons should be used when you want your web page users to select only one choice from a limited selection of choices.
The code below shows you how to create radio buttons in a form in HTML.
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
<title>Web Development Tutorials.com</title>
</head>
<body>
<form action="formscript.php" method="post">
<input type="radio" name="tutorial" value="html" /> HTML Tutorials
<br />
<input type="radio" name="tutorial" value="css" /> CSS Tutorials
</form>
</body>
</html>
Note: The <input> tag is a self-enclosing tag, therefore it must have a forward slash (/) and a preceding blank space to end the tag, for it to be XHTML compliant.
The code above creates the form below with radio buttons.
