How to uncheck checked radio button [duplicate]

This simple script allows you to uncheck an already checked radio button. Works on all javascript enabled browsers.

var allRadios = document.getElementsByName('re');
var booRadio;
var x = 0;
for(x = 0; x < allRadios.length; x++){
  allRadios[x].onclick = function() {
    if(booRadio == this){
      this.checked = false;
      booRadio = null;
    } else {
      booRadio = this;
    }
  };
}

<input type='radio' class='radio-button' name='re'>
<input type='radio' class='radio-button' name='re'>
<input type='radio' class='radio-button' name='re'>

Radio buttons are meant to be required options... If you want them to be unchecked, use a checkbox, there is no need to complicate things and allow users to uncheck a radio button; removing the JQuery allows you to select from one of them

You might consider adding an additional radio button to each group labeled 'none' or the like. This can create a consistent user experience without complicating the development process.

try this

single function for all radio have class "radio-button"

work in chrome and FF

$('.radio-button').on("click", function(event){
  $('.radio-button').prop('checked', false);
  $(this).prop('checked', true);
});

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<input type='radio' class='radio-button' name='re'>
<input type='radio'  class='radio-button' name='re'>
<input type='radio'  class='radio-button' name='re'>
