There are numerous HTML tutorials you can find with a web search.

In this case it looks like you want a FORM and a RADIOBUTTON and have the user SUBMIT to a CGI script on the server.

That is if you're not doing it on the client in javascript.

Hi, you can find a couple of tutorials in making forms in HTML in w3schools.com website. They also have a section there where you can see a couple of stuff regarding javascript.

If I get right what you want to do though, something like this comes to mind:

<form>
<input type="checkbox" name="car" value="volvo">Volvo<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="car" value="saab">Saab<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="car" value="opel">Opel<br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>

If checkboxes are not what you were after, you can try type="radio" to get radio buttons instead.

Hope it helps you out^^

<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>

The FORM will need an ACTION to say what CGI script to POST to.

The Submit button is that action

As you've been asked SEVERAL times before, you need to spell out your words.

And the demo_form.asp file is a SAMPLE name that was on the tutorial website. It was given to you so you could learn how to do it yourself. We are NOT going to write code for you. You've been given the answer and a how-to guide...now it's up to you to actually do it. And as has been pointed out before...you have been here for TEN YEARS NOW. At some point, you should be able to write your own scripts and look things up for yourself. To give that a little bit of perspective, ten years is enough time to:

Start and finish high school
Start and finish college
Get a masters degree

There are many, MANY easily-found examples on how to do what you want, in JSP, ASP, HTML, PHP, etc., that Google can point you to. If you're not a programmer and not familiar with this, then perhaps hiring a consultant would be best, if you don't want to learn how to do it yourself.
