[SOLVED] Run FEX or HTML from Radio Button

Hello

I have a radio button control with 5 values in it. I am able to select any value and run a fex (which uses the selected value) by clicking a Submit button.
Is there a possibility to directly run that fex by selecting a value from radio button control so that button can be removed?

In WF 8, tasks & animations, I selected Radio button for 'Trigger Identifier' and Click for 'Trigger Type' and 'Request Action' as that Fex..it runs the fex but the value that is clicked is not being passed. So, I am wondering if I am missing something in the tool or the only way is old fashion way of writing javascript?

Please suggest.

Thank you.

Trigger Type = Selection Changed
Trigger Identifier = your radio
Requests/Actions = your fex
And have the control binded with the parm

IMPORTANT : your radio setting must NOT have a default selected value, otherwise on first value changed, it will be the default one that will be sent to the fex.
