Single dropdown: re-selecting item unchecks radio

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi,

I'm using the single dropdownchecklist on some selects. When I click on an 
item, the radio input gets checked as it should. However, I noticed that when 
someone clicks again on the same item, but next to it's text, the radio gets 
deselected, while if you click on the text it doesn't (like it should). The 
consequence is that one should only click on the item's text and not next to it 
(but still within the item "button"). Doing so allows one to leave all radio's 
unchecked.

Can this be fixed? If I'm not stating the problem clearly, please let me know.

Thanks, Carlo

Good Catch -- I am guessing that while the control itself (the button and its 
associated text) is wired to 'on', the outer wrapper div is wired to 'toggle'.  
Toggle makes sense for a checkbox display, but not for a radio button.

I will try to get this fixed in the next release.

Thanks for your quick reply.

For now I temporarily solved it by adding the following parameter to the 
$.dropdownchecklist() call:

onItemClick: function (checkbox, selector) {
    var justChecked = checkbox.prop("checked");
    var checkCount = (justChecked) ? 1 : -1;

    // count selected items total
    for (i = 0; i < selector.options.length; i++) {
        if ( selector.options[i].selected ) checkCount += 1;
    }
    // check if less than one item is selected
    if (checkCount < 1 ) throw "too few";
}
