You define a field
GROUP and assign the value RADIO to it before the text node containing the Web attributes. Then, you group the three fields OPTION1, OPTION2, and OPTION3 together in a list box by setting the input type List box for them and entering GROUP under the group name. On the Web form, the user sees the field values of OPTION1, OPTION2, and OPTION3. If the user selects OPTION1, the browser passes the name/value pair RADIO=OPTION1. For radio buttons (input type Radio button), the browser would pass <field value of the group name >=<name of the field name for the radio button >.
