how to auto check the radio button???

i have made a edit section for the members where the every text field is filled by fetching the respective data and i m not able to check the one of the radio button field ie male or female......Please tell me how to check the one...

By using the checked property:

<input type="radio" name="foo" checked>

perhaps

<input type="checkbox" name="male" <?= $person['male']?'checked':'': ?> >

?

XHTML Compliant:

<input type="radio" name="gender" value="male"<?php !empty($info['male']) ? ' checked = "checked"' : '';?> />



Oh yeah, $info contains the variables you need. I'm not sure what you use, but I think you get the jist of it
