How do you change the default radio button that is checked from, "Yes, and my password is," to where, "No, I want to create a new account." is checked by default?

Thanks.

Hi, Most sites/businesses get more repeat customers, preferably more than new ones as it's generally cheaper to retain a customer than acquire new ones (advertising costs etc), but - if you do wish to change this....

In login.asp search for :
PassWordExists
and moved the string :
checked="checked"
from the line it's in, which has value="YES" to the line which has value="NO" 7 lines down.

Don't forget to track your changes etc (see my forum sig)

Awesome, thanks. Yes - we have been keeping a record of all the small changes we're making to certain pages - that's a good tip. Thanks again.

Also, we sell high-ticket items - so we get a lot of new customer orders. Also, did you know that if the radio button is set to, "Yes, and my password is," that if a new customer types in an email address and clicks the login/checkout button - nothing happens. The pages just kind of refreshes without any message. I find that quit weird. There should be a message like there is now - if someone types in an email that is already in the database and the, "No, I want to create a new account," is checked - they will get a nice message saying why the next page didn't load.

They, need to add a message if a new customer tries to checkout but the, "Yes, and my password is," button is checked - because right now - it just seems like the site is broken... and they can't proceed without reason as to why i.e. no message stating why the next page isn't loading.

Agreed on the message when pressing "Yes, and my password is"....
Would be great to show a message to the user to either enter their password or to choose Create a new account...

Hi,
As a side issue, don't forget you can set an option to allow people to checkout without creating a password - great for sites with one off transactions, although I think that has the impact of those customers who choose that option of preventing them then being able to log in to check on their order / repeat an order etc. I'm not a fan of this myself, but it's their and may match the needs of some sites.
