Newbie radio button question?

Question

Hi. I am trying to create a time field when a user clicks a certain radio button. More like a time stamp when the user clicked the radio button. There are three buttons labeled within a group: 'RadioButtonList' which have the values 1,2,3. When someone clicks the 1 button, the time field would get updated with the time the user clicked the button. Any ideas?

In the "Window" menu, next to "Tools", select "Script Editor".
You will see a script window open. Select the radio button first, in "Script Editor" make sure
Language: "Java Script" is selected,
Run At: "Client"
Show: select "Change"
Then paste the code in the window.
You have to put the right names of the fields for this to work. You can get the full name of the fields by selecting the field, you will then see in the "Script Editor" window the full name of the field.
If you created a field named "timeStamp", you would see soemthing like this in the Script Editor window:
----- form1.#subform[0].timeStamp::change - (JavaScript, client) ----------------------------------
The full name of this field would be "form1.#subform[0].timeStamp"
Following this example, the code to paste into the radio button "change" event would be:
var now = new Date();
form1.#subform[0].timeStamp.rawValue = now.toString();
