Hi Ram, I'm not sure what you mean. In any case, to give a little bit of background to my question. I'm using jQuery with a custom creation form in drupal and conditional fields. Fields that are hidden in the first place all appear - independently from what radio button has been selected - if you try to submit the form and did not populate a required form. I have two different fields to upload files. someone is supposed to either see one or the other. If the php validation gets back to the form, then both are displayed. I want to detect which field of the category radio buttons has been selected previously so that I can hide or the other.
