How do you set the values of fields to be different from the displayed value?

Just purchased a five-site license in hopes that this plugin would speed up some projects. Looks promising, but there is a) a pretty bad lack of documentation for a commercial plugin; and b) a lot of jquery errors (things like clicking on the help button in some fields will throw an error). I know Wordpress can make it challenging with theme / plugin compatibility, but I honestly haven't run into this level of problem with other plugins I used or written. That said, still seems like a very promising project.

What I'm trying to do is set up a multiple choice (radio button) field with options for membership types for a client. Each one should have as its displayed value the type of membership, and as its stored value, the price of that membership. Hopefully I'm just missing something really obvious as to how you set those values. Can someone point me in the right direction? I

I guess the API hook is what I'm going to have to do for this application then. Here's what I need to accomplish:

Someone fills out a membership form with a multiple select field for the types of memberships. The labels for those options have to be descriptive (Annual, Monthly, etc.) but the value I want to pass is the price of the membership as this is feeding into an online payment system. I'm using a jQuery script on the form to automatically update a total field on the form as the member selects various options. Easy enough if the value of their selection is the $ value. If I were hard coding a form, it would be something like "<input id='mtypes1 type='radio' value='500'><label for='mytpes1''>Annual Membership -- $500</label>, etc.

So any help where to look to have the input value and label be different would be appreciated.

Thanks Kevin. I actually ended up using jquery myself and then saw your post. I went a slightly different route for doing radio button custom labels. I used the values I wanted to display when I created the radio buttons (as in, made the first option "Annual Membership," second one "Seasonal Membership," etc. What I wanted was to make selecting one of them automatically update a "Total Fees" field. So I used jquery to check which button was selected and figure the price accordingly based on their index value.


$jq("input[name='input_37']").click(function(){
var index = $jq("input[name='input_37']").index(this);
switch(index){
case 0: fee=500;break;
case 1: fee=250;break;
case 2: fee=250;break;
case 3: fee=0;break;
}
updatetotal('fee', fee);
});


Each click on a radio button thus assigns the correct price to the fee variable, and then a function called update_total() runs which calculates the new running total and updates a field on the page.

has this feature (different value to displayed value) been added yet?

(with my limited JS skiils) i can't use this jQuery solution as it needs to be dynamic, in that if my client updates the form the JS array won't know the new values
