set_radio() within a form_radio() array - El Forum - 10-01-2011

Would it be possible to use set_radio within a form_radio array? To do this within a text input, you simply put the function in the value part of the array, however the value within a radio button is used differently.

For instance, say I have 2 radio buttons:

Code:
$radio1 = array (

 'name' => 'option',

 'value' => 'option1',

 'checked' => TRUE,

);

$radio1 = array (

 'name' => 'option',

 'value' => 'option2',

 'checked' => FALSE,

);

echo form_radio($radio1);

echo form_radio($radio2);

Is there any way i can manipulate that arrays above to include the set_radio() function or would I simply have to simply use the following:

Code:
&lt;input type="radio" name="option" value="option1" &lt;?php echo set_radio('option', 'option1'); ?&gt; /&gt;

&lt;input type="radio" name="option" value="option2" &lt;?php echo set_radio('option', 'option2'); ?&gt; /&gt;

I'm asking simply because I feel using the arrays makes it easier on the eye if I ever have to go back and edit.

Thanks for the time!
