How to de-select radio button on running total form?

[newgurl]

Hi I am using this form but it won't de-select the radio buttons when making a new selection.

function calculateTotal(inputItem) {
  with (inputItem.form) {
    // Process each of the different input types in the form.
    if (inputItem.type == "radio") {   // Process radio buttons.
      // Subtract the previously selected radio button value from the total.
      calculatedTotal.value = eval(calculatedTotal.value) - eval(previouslySelectedRadioButton.value);
      // Save the current radio selection value.
      previouslySelectedRadioButton.value = eval(inputItem.value);
      // Add the current radio button selection value to the total.
      calculatedTotal.value = eval(calculatedTotal.value) + eval(inputItem.value);
    } else {   // Process check boxes.
      if (inputItem.checked == false) {   // Item was uncheck. Subtract item value from total.
          calculatedTotal.value = eval(calculatedTotal.value) - eval(inputItem.value);
      } else {   // Item was checked. Add the item value to the total.
          calculatedTotal.value = eval(calculatedTotal.value) + eval(inputItem.value);
      }
    }

    // Total value should never be less than 0.
    if (calculatedTotal.value < 0) {
      InitForm();
    }

    // Return total value.
    return(formatCurrency(calculatedTotal.value));
  }
}

// Format a value as currency.
function formatCurrency(num) {
  num = num.toString().replace(/\$|\,/g,'');
  if(isNaN(num))
     num = "0";
  sign = (num == (num = Math.abs(num)));
  num = Math.floor(num*100+0.50000000001);
  cents = num%100;
  num = Math.floor(num/100).toString();
  if(cents<10)
      cents = "0" + cents;
  for (var i = 0; i < Math.floor((num.length-(1+i))/3); i++)
      num = num.substring(0,num.length-(4*i+3)) + ',' + num.substring(num.length-(4*i+3));
  return (((sign)?'':'-') + '$' + num + '.' + cents);
}

// This function initialzes all the form elements to default values.
function InitForm() {
// Reset values on form.
  document.selectionForm.total.value='$0';
  document.selectionForm.calculatedTotal.value=0;
  document.selectionForm.previouslySelectedRadioButton.value=0;
// Set all checkboxes and radio buttons on form to unchecked.
for (i=0; i < document.selectionForm.elements.length; i++) {
if (document.selectionForm.elements[i].type == 'checkbox' | document.selectionForm.elements[i].type == 'radio') {
    document.selectionForm.elements[i].checked = false;
    }
  }
}

It says previouslySelectedRadioButton.value = eval(inputItem.value);
how do I change that it won't keep the previously selected radio button?

Thanks not knowing anything about javascript I am learning php.

Please show us the markups (HTML) that is related to this script.

1. As rangana pointed out you should provide either the full page source or a link to your page.

2. In your JavaScript code the eval function used in an incorrect manner (I think). eval is a core function of JavaScript which evaluates a string of JavaScript code and execute that. In your case I think you are looking for a method using which you can convert a string into numerical type which can be achieved using parseInt or parseFloat functions. It is better to avoid the usage of eval function unless it can't be avoided.

3. Have a look at the way you can handle the radio button using the following link:

Hope this helps.
