How to check HTML parameter in VBscript ?

My code:

...
<TR><TD>
<input type='radio' name='ans' value='yes' >
<input type='radio' name='ans' value='no' >
</TD></TR>

How to write the following codes to check whether which of the above is checked and then proceed accordingly.

<%
if (ans=yes) ;How check here??
Do this
else
Do that
%>

The user can select only one of the options, you get only one value returned. The browser sends the value of the selected control, so if the user of this form has selected yes you would just get this single entry when using the form collection. (This works because you have provided a different value for each of the controls.
So use the value attribute.)

Use the form collection.

I thing it's something like this :

Request.form("ans") = "yes"

I have tried the following but wrong ans
given.

<input type='radio' name='ans' value='yes' checked >
<input type='radio' name='ans' value='no' >

<%
if( Request.form("ans") = "yes" )then
Response.Write "Yes"
else if ( Request.form("ans") = "no" )then
Response.Write "No"
else
Response.Write "No answer"
end if
end if
%>

The ans is always "No answer". Why?

I can't put different names to the radio buttons as I want ONLY one of them to be selected. Thanks.
