Stupid Selection Box (actually it's a circle)

Okay so I’m trying to do my college applications online, and I accidentally clicked on a box that I didn’t need to select, and now it won’t let me unselect it. it’s not like a check mark, its one of those circle ones with a green dot.

And I’ve tried EVERYTHING I like clicked away from it I right clicked I clicked all the other ones and the dot just WON’T go away!!! :frowning:

abh kya karoon mein :aj:

Redo the application?

Re: Stupid Selection Box (actually it’s a circle)

Redo the entire application just because of this stupid selection box (which is actually a circle) ?! :mad:

And I don’t even KNOW how to reset the application I can’t find any option for it.

Forget it. Just forget it. I just won’t go to college. I’m running away from home.

:frowning:

aww moti. :hugz:

there should be a contact number given for technical assistance for online applications. call them up and spend an hour or so on the phone :smiley: have you tried restarting your application? not redoing

Re: Stupid Selection Box (actually it’s a circle)

Yea I can’t find a clear or reset option. =\

I think I’ll call them up tomorrow. If that doesn’t work, then I’ll just make a new account and start all over again. :hinna:

Re: Stupid Selection Box (actually it's a circle)

Phatima, just cuz of the joke section thing I'll give u the answer :p.
2 options:
1. Use a different web browser. ie. if that problem came up in Internet Explorer then use either Firefox or Opera
2. Clear cache and all cookies from the current browser.

That should clear this issue.

Re: Stupid Selection Box (actually it's a circle)

It should not matter at all. It clearly says, "If Yes". If you have selected "No", it will not take into account what option you have selected later (if it is properly programmed, that is).

Re: Stupid Selection Box (actually it's a circle)

Its called an "option button" or a "radio button", not a selection box or a selection circle.

To answer your question, its a badly designed/developed html form. That is all there is to it. I have seen it many times where a (deselected/default) option is available for selection but there isn't a way to deselect it once you have already selected it. You best bet is to redo the application and don't select the culprit next time.

Re: Stupid Selection Box (actually it’s a circle)

I don’t know how to get Firefox or anything else we just use IE. And I will try to clear the cookies when I get home, but I don’t think that will work. :bummer: Thanks anyways.

Re: Stupid Selection Box (actually it’s a circle)

for firefox just go to

Re: Stupid Selection Box (actually it’s a circle)

No, I can’t download it!! :bummer: My brother will get mad.

Re: Stupid Selection Box (actually it's a circle)

use a pencil and make a dark dot on the other circle too pal. and then draw a smile underneath. like this ---> =)

Re: Stupid Selection Box (actually it’s a circle)

no. :phati:

Re: Stupid Selection Box (actually it's a circle)

like this then? =]

Re: Stupid Selection Box (actually it’s a circle)

nooo i don’t wanna do that okay?! :grumpy:

I’m just gonna make a new account. =<

Re: Stupid Selection Box (actually it's a circle)

As long as the first one is "No", the Grad/Undergrad doesnt matter if its selected or not. The Grad/Undergrad only applies IF the first one has been selected as "Yes".

Re: Stupid Selection Box (actually it's a circle)

Okay but I also accidentally clicked two other circles that shouldn't be clicked. :( I don't know what I was doing!
