[[SmartSimple]] does not have a '''Select One - Radio button''' field type but you can use a check box field to re-create this type of functionality.
 
To prevent a user from selecting more than one Check Box for the associated [[Custom Field]], add this code to the '''HTML Tag''' section of the [[Custom Field]]:
onclick="onlyonechecked(this)"
'''NOTE: It is normally better to use a [[Combo Box]] custom field with ''Show as Radio Buttons'' selected'''
This can be used for:
* [[Custom Field Type: Select Many – Check Boxes|Select Many - Check Box]]
::and
* [[Custom Field Type: Select Many – Scrolling Check Box|Select Many - Scrolling Check Box]]
This can be used for:
 
* [[Custom Field Type: Select Many – Check Boxes|Select Many - Check Box]] <!--
*: and
* [[Custom Field Type: Select Many – Scrolling Check Box|Select Many - Scrolling Check Box]] -->
The [[User|user]] will not be able to select more than a single check box with this code in place.
For a [[Custom Field Type: Select One – Combo Box|Select One - Combo Box]] field, the "Show as Radio Buttons" option can be selected to display the field selections as "radio buttons." ==Note==* If using '''onlyonechecked''' on a [[Custom Field Type: Select Many – Check Boxes|Select Many - Check Box]] field and you also want to [[Show/Hide Header]] you should use '''_showhideheader''' instead of '''_showhideheadercheckbox'''
