Problems with RadioButtonList

[Guest]

Hi there. I'm having some fundamental issues using the RadioListButton control. I initialize it with values from from a database when the page load with:

item1 = new ListItem( "listing from database" );
item2 = new ListItem( "listing #2 from database" );
radioButtonList.Items.Add( item1 );
radioButtonList.Items.Add( item2 );

When running it in the debugger after selecting an item and clicking the submit button, the radioButtonList *never* has a selected item. It is quite bizarre. I feel confident there is some minor step that I'm missing. At least I'm hoping that is the case, otherwise this control isn't very usable!!

thanks for any tips,

only fill the listitems if the page is not posted back ...
