Radio Buttons Null When Submitted

On a contact form for a client of mine, there are radio selections that do not have a default selection. When the form is submitted, without selecting one, the variable is not passed to the ASP page... it is ignored. Is there a way to get the radio input, even if it is null? Right now I'm using the POST method on the form and Request.Form command for the inputs. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Derrick
 
Checkboxes behave the same way.

If they are selected then you get the value, if not you don't.
 
Use the IsEmpty function. Somthing like this...

Code:
<%
    If IsEmpty(Request.Form("[!]RadioButtonName[/!]")) Then
        ' Radio button was not selected
    End If
%>
