There is much wrong pieces.
First: <button> tag supported only on IE.
Second: layers object supported only in Netscape
Third: In Netscape ANY (in your case radio) form element need to be enclosed in <form> tag (may be without attributes) [sig]<p>Michael Dubner<br>Brainbench MVP/HTML+JavaScript<br>

i delete <button> now, and add <form>
change javascript to
---
function ButtonPress(buttonnumber) {
if (document.layer){
document.layers.cust.document.write('data'+buttonnumber);
}
if (document.all){
document.innerhtml=buttonnumber;
}
}
</SCRIPT>

now it only works in IE, not in Netscape. but you mentioned layer works in netscape.
