We are working on a project to place one of our online surveys into a kiosk network using touch-screens for input. The problem that we are running into is that the standard/default Radio buttons are too small for a person to easily hit using their finger. Does anybody know of a Javascript (or any other) solution to increase the size of these Radio buttons?

Thanks,

Curt

It is possible to change the size of buttons for Netscape users just by increasing the font size. This does not work for IE users, however, which is why I have started using images to supplant the buttons. You can make them function in the same manner as the buttons inmost cases, and you can make them any size you want.

cseline - that sounds pretty neat. Do you have any examples on-line? Do you use hidden form fields to hold the data and swap out images each time it's checked?

You can change the size of a regular button, but not a radio button. As cseline says though, you can use an image as a form input, like this:

<input type=image src="image.gif" name="name" width=20 height=20>

Or use an image, a hidden field, and the onClick event handler:

<a href="#" onClick="document.form.field.value='whatever'; document.form.submit()"><img src="whatever.gif"></a>

I'd really need more information on the form to be more specific.

Cheers,
adam
