how can I make php fill in RADIO buttons?

[partha]

I need to have a php script fill in some radio buttons based on values from a database. Any idea how this would be possible?

[Captaffy]

something along the lines of-

if ($value_from_database == "something")
print "<input type='radio' name='search_type' value='submitted' checked='checked' />";
else
print "<input type='radio' name='search_type' value='submitted' />";

OR

<input type='radio' name='search_type' value='submitted' <?php if ($value_from_database == "something") print "checked='checked'";?> />
