Radio buttons not getting selected

[kenia]

Hi everyone!
I'm using the DOM standard to create a set of radio buttons, but I can't select any of them. It means that they appear in the page, but when I click on any of them nothing seems to happen. This is the code I've written to create the radio buttons

var list = document.create Element("table" );
var tbody = document.create Element("tbody" );
var values = new Array("Hoy","Ay er","Ultima semana","Este mes","Personali zar");

for(var i=0; i<values.length ; i++)
{
var tr = document.create Element("tr");
var td = document.create Element("td");
td.setAttribute ("align","left" );
var option = document.create Element("input" );
option.setAttri bute("type","ra dio");
option.setAttri bute("name","da te");
option.setAttri bute("value",va lues[i]);

td.appendChild( option);
td.appendChild( document.create TextNode(values[i]));

tr.appendChild( td);

tbody.appendChi ld(tr);
}

list.appendChil d(tbody);

return list;

So if any of you sees that something is missing, say an attribute or something like that to make it work, please help me out and reply this.
Thanks a lot

You created the buttons and put them on the screen, but where is the code that captures the button when clicked?

If you want to default to one you need to add checked="checke d"

You're right, I haven't written that code, but it's just because I thought that it would be like in the case of the select element in which one you don't have to select the options by yourself, you just attach a function to an event when you want to do something in particular when it fires.
Anyway, now I have another question, I could do this
option.onclick = anyFunction;

But then I would be calling a function with no parameters, so how would I know which was the radio that was clicked? Or how could I attach a function dynamically which I could pass the clicked radio name or id to?

Thanks again.
