Handling multiple radio buttons in a Quiz Angular 5


I'm new to Angular and Implementing a Quiz containing multiple MCQs. But I am having trouble in radio button selection.

My Questions are coming from the database and Options too.

mcq.component.html

<form (ngSubmit)="ff.form.valid && answer(ff)" #ff="ngForm">
  <div *ngFor="let question of questions">
    <p style="font-size: 25px;">{{question.title}}</p>
    <div *ngFor="let option of question.options">
        <input [(ngModel)]="option_model.selected_option_id" #selected_option_id="ngModel" type="radio" value="{{option.id}}" name="{{question.id}}">
        <!-- <input type="radio" value="{{option.id}}" name="{{question.id}}" ngModel > --> //This way it works fine but I need to use [(ngModel)] to submit the form
      {{option.title}}
    </div>
  </div>
  <input style="float: right" type="submit" value="Submit"/>
</form>

Note: The {{question.id}} is unique for each question. Also, this works well if I remove the [(ngModel)] attribute.

And here is what I'm trying to accomplish And here is what I'm trying to accomplish

The Problem: When I select an option from the second question it deselects the selected option from the First Question. Means I am only able to select one option from both questions.

Please Help me, what I am doing wrong. I've been stuck here for two days.


Solution

  • Okay, Git it Sorted. The issue was with the ngModel and name attribute

    It works fine like this

    <input [(ngModel)]="options[question.id]" [checked]="options[question.id]" value="{{question.id}}-{{option.id}}" type="radio"
          name="option{{question.id}}">
    

    And in typescript

    options: any = [];
    option: any = [];
