Radio buttons change state when page changes

[_Who]

I have a master containing radio buttons all with the same group name.

If I select one of the buttons and then navigate to a different page the
buttons revert to their initial state.

Is that what you'd expect?

How can I make the state persist?



Thanks

Yes, that is expected. Think of master pages as user controls embedded in
content pages. A different page has no knowledge about the previous one
unless you cater for that. You may want to save the selection in a session
variable and restore it on the next page in Page_Load event.

Yes, just like with any other UserControl, which is all a MasterPage is...

Store them in a Session variable.
