    Question:

    cfif is not working inside coldfusion tag. consider this snipet of code

    when i put only input rather than cfinput it is working.
    is there any way to resolve this????

    i don't think there is any way around it... this would do the trick with a little extra code

    <cfif gender eq qgender.gender>
    <cfinput type="radio" name="gender" selected>
    <cfelse>
    <cfinput type="radio" name="gender">
    </cfif>

    however i think the cfinput tags also need values

    Did you try closing the <cfif> tag:

    ie:
    
<cfinput type="radio" name="gender" [B][COLOR="Red"]<cfif gender eq qgender.gender>selected</cfif>[/COLOR][/B]>
    Code (markup):
    Are you trying to have this radio button "checked" when the form loads?
    If so you could try this:

    

<cfinput type="radio" name="gender" [B][COLOR="Red"]<cfif gender eq qgender.gender>checked="true"</cfif>[/COLOR][/B]>
    Code (markup):
