Use the onClick property:

<input type="radio" name="r1" value="10" onClick="document.getElementById('hidfield').value=this.value"/>10
    <br/>
    <input type="radio" name="r1" value="45" onClick="document.getElementById('hidfield').value=this.value"/>
    45
    <br/>
    <input type="hidden" name="sum" value="" id="hidfield" />

You can try for example

<input type="radio" id="radio1r1" name="r1" value="10" />10
<br/>
<input type="radio" id="radio2r1" name="r1" value="45" />45
<br/>
<input type="hidden" name="sum" value="" />

jQuery("input[id^='radio']").click(function() {
    jQuery("input[name='sum']").val(jQuery(this).val());
}

So then when user click on each radio we handle it by various id with same start.

Using jQuery it would be:

$(":radio").click(function () {
    var inputValue = $this.val();
    $(":hidden[name='sum']").val() = inputValue;
$(":hidden[name='sum']").name() = "lalala";
    });

I've not double checked that code so it might need a little tweaking.

hook into the onclick event for the radio button "r1". Normally I'd suggest the onchange event but in IE it isn't fired until the user "blurs" the radio button.

If you are using a framework like jQuery, hook in the events in a nice unobtrusive manner... but if you want a quick n dirty solution, just add the events inline.

<input type="radio" name="r1" value="10" onclick="doIt(this);"/>10
<br/>
<input type="radio" name="r1" value="45" onclick="doIt(this);"/>45
<br/>
<input type="hidden" name="sum" value="" />

<script>
  function doIt(obj){
    //alert('my value is now: ' + obj.value);
    obj.form.elements['sum'].value = obj.value;//set hidden field to radio value
  }
</script>
