Which control gets the invalid > event? Which control is marked as having non-zero validity? I would like UAs to just make it impossible for none of the radio buttons in a set to be chosen. "Exactly one radio button should be set in the group at all times" <http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gup/hig/1.0/ controls.html#controls-radio-buttons>. If the author doesn't specify which one should be chosen initially, the browser should pre-select the first one, just as it does for SELECT elements <http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/interact/forms.html#h-17.6.1>. -- Matthew Thomas http://mpt.net.nz/
