Can radio button select multiple?
Only one radio button in a given group can be selected at the same time.
Should radio buttons have a default selection?
Always Offer a Default Selection
In case of radio buttons this means that radio buttons should always have exactly one option pre-selected. Select the safest and most secure option (to prevent data loss).
How can you group a set of radio buttons together in HTML so that the user can select only one option amongst them?
As mentioned, radio buttons come in groups. Use the required name attribute to group together a set of related radio buttons. In the above example, all <input>s share the same value for name, so they are treated as part of the same group. This lets users only choose one option in a group at a time — try it out above.
