<h2>Expected behaviors</h2>
<p>
The radio should be focusable using the keyboard, and toggle its
checkable state when arrowing between other radios within the same
group or when pressing the Spacebar or Enter key. Multiple radios
within the same group should have only one tab stop.
</p>
<p>
The 4X ARIA Radio module automatically configures all required
ARIA attributes and focus handling, in strict accordance with the
ARIA specification.
</p>
<p>
The following attributes are handled automatically by the Radio
module:
</p>
<ul>
<li>role=radiogroup</li>
<li>role=radio</li>
<li>aria-checked</li>
<li>tabindex</li>
</ul>
<p>Available attributes for radio elements:</p>
<ul>
<li>
data-radio : May be set to "false" or "true" to set the current
state of a checkable control when rendered.
</li>
<li>
aria-disabled : When set to "true" on the triggering element,
will automatically disable associated functionality.
</li>
</ul>
<p>
Note: When dynamically disabling a triggering element, the 4X
setDisabled() function should be used to set the disabled state of
the triggering element. This will ensure proper background
mapping.
</p>
<div>
<pre><code class="language-javascript">
$A.setDisabled(triggeringElement, boolean);
</code></pre>
</div>
<h2>HTML syntax</h2>
<h3>Standard Unchecked</h3>
<div>
<pre><code class="language-markup"><div data-radio >
Markup with radio name
<input hidden type="radio" name="OptionalBoundRadio" />
</div></code></pre>
</div>
<h3>Standard Checked</h3>
<div>
<pre><code class="language-markup"><div data-radio="true" >
Markup with radio name
<input checked hidden type="radio" name="OptionalBoundRadio" />
</div></code></pre>
</div>
<p>
IMPORTANT: The focusable active element must not include any other
exposed active elements, otherwise these will not be accessible to
non-sighted screen reader users.
</p>
<p>
Whenever a hidden checkbox is embedded within the simulated
control, it will automatically reflect the toggled state of the
parent element. This makes it possible to implement custom toggle
controls that can be submitted in the same manner as native form
controls. This, however, is optional, and may be removed without
having any negative impact on the functionality of the simulated
toggle control.
</p>
<h2>JavaScript syntax</h2>
<div>
<pre><code class="language-javascript">$A.setRadio( domNodeOrCSSSelectorForTriggeringElements , {
// Configure functionality key / value mappings
});</code></pre>
</div>
<ul>
<li>Module file: Button.js</li>
<li>Requires: AccName.js, RovingTabIndex.js.</li>
<li>Recommended: Velocity.js, VelocityUI.js.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Parameters</h2>
<ol>
<li>
A DOM element or CSS selector to specify the triggering elements
</li>
<li>A configuration map to customize behaviors and options</li>
</ol>
<h3 tabindex="-1" id="configure">Configuration</h3>
<div>
<pre><code class="language-javascript">{
// Set an explicit name for the radio.
// If undefined, the accessible name will default to the text content within the radio element.
label: "My informative radio label",
// Specify if the radio is required.
// If a native radio element is specified, this property will automatically be set to match the radio element's 'required' property.
required: false,
// Specify if the radio is disabled.
// If a native radio element is specified, this property will automatically be set to match the radio element's 'disabled' property.
disabled: false,
// Set the class to be applied when a radio is toggled.
// If undefined, "checked" will be set by default.
toggleClassName: "checked",
// Set a custom event handler to process every time a radio is activated.
onActivate: function(ev, triggerNode, boundRadio, checked, set) {
// 'checked' reflects the current attribute value for the checkable item, and is always a number if applicable.
// if 0, the checked state is "false".
// if 1, the checked state is "true".
// The 'set' argument is a function that will set the checkable item to a new state.
// The new value must be a string consisting of "false" or "true".
set("true");
ev.preventDefault();
