cannot print integer radio labels.

[izap]

I have following array to be used as options for a radio group.

Array
(
    [svn:4] => opt:1
    [svn:6] => opt:2
    [None of above] => opt:3
)

It was expected to be printed like:
radio: 4
radio: 6
radio: None of above

But the result was
radio: opt:4[[BR]]
radio: opt:6[[BR]]
radio: None of above

Possible fix i did
In default/input/radio.php

$labelint = (int) $label;
        if ("{$label}" == "{$labelint}") {
        	$label = $option;
        }

There is no need of above script.

default/input/radio.php file without the described script.

(In [svn:6626]) Refs #1393 - tried to make the ugly hack comprehensible and added a note that this will be deprecated in Elgg 1.8

Why are the labels the keys rather than the values being the keys?

Maybe trying to be consistent with checkboxes where you can have the same value multiple times?

I take that back - values must be unique with the checkboxes view.

I believe the options array is label => value to support passing an indexed array of values - which also requires the hack that caused this bug. We're removing the hack (it's deprecated in 1.8). It is harder to change the order because it breaks all plugins that use checkboxes and radio inputs.

I tried to get integer labels with the current code. Using $options1? = 'value1' did not work because PHP automatically casts '1' to 1. The only way I could do this was to use character codes like 1

As we do have a work around and the problem is due to deprecated code, I'm pushing this back to 1.9.
