do you know how to pre-select a Radio Button in HTML ?

Yes. Set the CHECKED property of the HTML radio button to “checked” in order to make it default to the “selected” state.

For example, the following 3 radio buttons are provided to select the most favorite game, with Super Mario Bros “Checked” ie selected by default.

Super Mario Bros

Dangerous Dave

Pacman

Code Snippet

<input checked="checked" name="super-mario-bros" type="radio" value="super-mario-bros" />Super Mario Bros
<input name="dangerous-dave" type="radio" value="dangerous-dave" />Dangerous Dave
<input name="pacman" type="radio" value="pacman" />Pacman
