'Radio button text click result wrong answer [duplicate]
When I click the text of "prefer not to say" of the second and third questions, the first question's answer changes to "prefer not to say". When I click the text of 'other' of the third question, the second question's answer changes to 'other'. In both cases, the third question's 'other' and 'prefer not to say' do not check when I click text. What is wrong with this code?
It runs well when I click the radio button.

Solution 1:[1]
This is because your radio inputs have the same ID.
Every element needs to have unique ID, so just change some of them and you should be fine. Don't forget to update your for attributes aswell.
Solution 2:[2]
IDs are global in the DOM.
Your label is targeting the control with the id "Prefer not to say", so the first control with the ID that matches the for attribute in the label is activated.
Add a 1, 2, 3, etc... to the ids and for attri
