I am trying to set a radio button based on selecting an option in a select box.
For example, There are 5 select options available, If I select the first option, first radio button should be checked. Likewise for the rest of the things. I am working only with Javascript.
I have tried the below code.

In this particular case, the value of the select elements aligns with the index of the related radio button plus 1, so you could do:
document.getElementsByName('radio_value')[++x].checked = true;but that's not a general solution. – RobG Commented Dec 26, 2014 at 14:14 - @RobG I have tried in my localhost about what you said, there is no selected radio button. – Gunaseelan Commented Dec 26, 2014 at 14:18

Ah yes, you also need
x = document.getElementsByName("select_value")[0].value. – RobG Commented Dec 28, 2014 at 22:38

Reset to default 2You can add this code to your javascript
var select = document.getElementsByTagName('select')[0];
select.onchange = function(event) {
var btns = document.querySelectorAll('[name^="radio_value"]');
btns[event.target.value].checked = true
}
working example
Documentation
Events
Selectors
Following changes makes your example work :
1.
<select name="select_value" onchange="myFunction()">
2.
document.getElementsByName("select_value")[0].value;
3.
document.getElementsByName('radio_value')[x].checked=true;
4.
function should be in head section

Try this. It is working for me. Use parseInt when getting the value of the select box. I have given an id to the select box and have used x-1 while selecting the radio buttons as their index starts from 0.
<form name="myform" action="">
<label for="name">Name</label>
<input type="text" name="name"></input>
<br>
<label for="select_value" >Select Number</label>
<select name="select_value" onchange="myFunction()">
<option value="1">1</option>
<option value="2">2</option>
<option value="3">3</option>
<option value="4">4</option>
<option value="5">5</option>
</select>
<br>
<label for="radio_value">Select Position</label>
<input type="radio" name="radio_value" value="First">First</input>
<input type="radio" name="radio_value" value="Second">Second</input>
<input type="radio" name="radio_value" value="Third">Third</input>
<input type="radio" name="radio_value" value="Fourth">Fourth</input>
<input type="radio" name="radio_value" value="Fifth">Fifth</input>
<br>
<input type="submit" name="form_submit" value="Submit"></input>
</form>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
function myFunction() {
var x = parseInt(document.getElementsByName("select_value")[0].value);
alert((x));
document.getElementsByName('radio_value')[x-1].checked=true;
}
Try this out its working fine
