Can you show us a demo URL? To see what the problem is? Or tell us at least what the problem is?

In all the buttonsets you have:
While you probably should have:
In short: no matter what button is selected in your code, it's value is always 1.

Problem..
Here's what is happening. I have created a form that has radio buttons:
I.E.
How was your stay here: O O O O O
Was everything ok: O O O O O
After everything is filled in, the user will click submit & the data will be in PHP. Please see the code. It is not saving any of the buttons.
Please see link for example:

Thanks!

If you are a newbie, start with smaller problems -- create very simple form with handling and once you get it to work apply the working technique on bigger problem. I guess there aren't many who bother to read very long codes especially if the actual problem is quite basic stuff. At least I don't anymore

I'm not asking for the whole form to be fixed. I'm just wondering if anyone knows how to use multiple radio buttons on the page with one submit button? I want to pass the value to PHP for each radio button & I can handle it from there.

Here it is in it's simplest form. Assuming the following is the contents of the file 'index.php'. Any help?

Ok, I finally got my code to work. Now I have one last question to ask. When a button is not selected, I want a message sent stating the field needs to be filled out. Please see my code. If the buttons aren't selected, it just loops back to a blank page. Any idea why it's not working?
PHP Code:
<html>
<? function show_form ( $R1 = "" , $R2 = "" , $R3 = "" , $R4 = "" , $R5 = "" , $R6 = "" , $R7 = "" ) { ?>
<?php }
$_GET [ 'R1' ]) or !isset( $_GET [ 'R2' ]) or !isset( $_GET [ 'R3' ])
$_GET [ 'R4' ]) or !isset( $_GET [ 'R5' ]) or !isset( $_GET [ 'R6' ])
$_GET [ 'R7' ])) {
show_form ();
$R1 = $_GET [ 'R1' ];
$R2 = $_GET [ 'R2' ];
$R3 = $_GET [ 'R3' ];
$R4 = $_GET [ 'R4' ];
$R5 = $_GET [ 'R5' ];
$R6 = $_GET [ 'R6' ];
$R7 = $_GET [ 'R7' ];
$R1 ) or empty( $R2 ) or empty( $R3 ) or empty( $R4 ) or empty( $R5 ) or empty( $R6 ) or
$R7 )) {
"<H2>There is a Problem:</H2>" ;
"<H4>Please fill in your " ;
$PrevError = "" ;
$R1 )) {
$PrevError == "Y" ) { echo ", " ; }
"Question 1" ;
$PrevError = "Y" ;
$R2 )) {
$PrevError == "Y" ) { echo ", " ; }
"Question 2" ;
$PrevError = "Y" ;
$R3 )) {
$PrevError == "Y" ) { echo ", " ; }
"Question 3" ;
$PrevError = "Y" ;
$R4 )) {
$PrevError == "Y" ) { echo ", " ; }
"Question 4" ;
$PrevError = "Y" ;
$R5 )) {
$PrevError == "Y" ) { echo ", " ; }
"Question 5" ;
$PrevError = "Y" ;
$R6 )) {
$PrevError == "Y" ) { echo ", " ; }
"Question 6" ;
$PrevError = "Y" ;
$R7 )) {
$PrevError == "Y" ) { echo ", " ; }
"Question 7" ;
$PrevError = "Y" ;
".</H4>" ;
show_form ( $R1 , $R2 , $R3 , $R4 , $R5 , $R6 , $R7 ); }}
$_GET [ 'R1' ]) and isset( $_GET [ 'R2' ]) ) {
"Testing selected values:<br><br>" ;
"Question 1: $R1 <br>" ;
"Question 1 Comments: $S1 <br><br>" ;
"Question 2: $R2 <br>" ;
"Question 2 Comments: $S2 <br><br>" ;
"Question 3: $R3 <br>" ;
"Question 3 Comments: $S3 <br><br>" ;
"Question 4: $R4 <br>" ;
"Question 4 Comments: $S4 <br><br>" ;
"Question 5: $R5 <br>" ;
"Question 5 Comments: $S5 <br><br>" ;
"Question 6: $R6 <br>" ;
"Question 6 Comments: $S6 <br><br>" ;
"Question 7: $R7 <br>" ;
"Question 7 Comments: $S7 <br><br>" ;
"<a href=\"index.htm\">Return to blank survey form</a>" ;
?>
