[thelist] (ASP.NET): Grouping radio buttons in a repeater.

[Peter Brunone (EasyListBox.com)]

   If you plan to use a group, or anything with runat="server", your only option will be to go through and change the names client-side (myTable.getElementsByTagName should get you started in the right direction).  Of course this could mess things up in Viewstate when you post back, which at best would have you using Request.Form to retrieve the value... and at worst would throw a yellow barf screen error.

FWIW...

I have a repeater that creates one radio button for every item. I want these radio buttons grouped together so that only one of them can be selected.

In my repeater, I specify this:

rbPhonePrimary.GroupName = "rbgPhonePrimary"

but when it produces the page, the radio buttons get names like this:

name="rptPhone:_ctl0:rbgPhonePrimary"
name="rptPhone:_ctl1:rbgPhonePrimary"
name="rptPhone:_ctl2:rbgPhonePrimary"
etc...

Is there any way to get what I want here?
