You say RadioSelect widget but you mention HTML that doesn't go with a radio
input type -- option goes with a <SELECT ...> construct? If you showed some
code for what you are trying it might help people help you. The way to
specify the initially-selection option for a RadioSelect is to specify it as
the initial value for the associated form field. For example:
class F1(forms.Form):
rs_field = forms.ChoiceField(choices=(('Y','Yes'), ('N','No')),
initial='N', widget=forms.RadioSelect)
which would render (unbound) as:
<tr><th><label for="id_rs_field_0">Rs field:</label></th><td><ul>
<li><label for="id_rs_field_0"><input type="radio" id="id_rs_field_0"
value="Y" name="rs_field" /> Yes</label></li>
<li><label for="id_rs_field_1"><input checked="checked" type="radio"
id="id_rs_field_1" value="N" name="rs_field" /> No<
/label></li>
</ul></td></tr>
...with the "No" radio input initially selected, since it specified the
checked attribute.
