I agree, this is not right for radios but you could validate the radio group using addGroupRule() with 'required' and 'howmany' set to 1. This is not a bug, it's the expected behaviour: when you use addRule() instead of addGroupRule() on a group, all elements in the group must be valid. > Bertrand, how about setting changing the 'howmany' semantics from '$howmany > value(s) are valid' to 'no invalid values exist and there is atleast $howmany > valid value(s)' and setting 'howmany'=1 when doing addRule() on group element? This is a good idea. We can discuss this a bit more off list, I need to make some tests. Bertrand Mansion Mamasam
