You may want to use the "correct" way of accessing the form. First of all, give the form a name if you haven't already. Second, document.forms["formName"].elements["elementName"].checked = true; You also may be able to get the ids from QF somehow, but I have no idea how. For all of my QF related JS I use the above syntax as it relies on the name of the element and not the ID.
