Hi Dorris,

Looks at your code I am wondering if --ch-- changes the ID? If this is the case, it would be easier to use a class like this.

    //$(document).on('change','.classtocheckbox',function(event){
      //   $('.classtoradiobuttons').toggle();
    //}

The on() function creates an event and it doesn't matter if the page is not fully rendered when created. Using bind (which click is a shortcut for bind('click').. ) will fail if the DOM is not fully loaded. That is why you need to have bind events inside of $(document).ready() event.

If there are more than one set of radio buttons group on the same page then the ID might work better for the radio buttons.


>ummm....Unfortunately, that didn't seem to affect it at all. And now that function looks like
