I have a custom meta box with two different radio buttons that can be selected. One is for displaying the content in a "large' format, the other is for displaying content in a "small" format on the front end. I already know how to retrieve a meta box's data and output it, but not how to "check" what specific data has been selected, and how to that output according to what value has been selected. (**It should be noted that I will be using this data to output a specific CSS class that can then be applied to a different block of code designated for that selection**) Here is what i have for my meta box (UPDATED):<br/> <?php // Register Custom Post Type Meta Box for EPR Music Releases CPT -- Album Sizes add_action( 'add_meta_boxes', 'musicreleases_albumsize_meta_box_add' ); function musicreleases_albumsize_meta_box_add() { add_meta_box( 'musicreleases_albumsize_meta_id', 'Album Size', 'musicreleases_albumsize_meta_box_cb', 'eprmusicrelease', 'normal', 'low' ); } function musicreleases_albumsize_meta_box_cb( $post ) { $value = get_post_meta( $post->ID,'meta_box_musicreleases_albumsize',true ); wp_nonce_field( 'my_meta_box_nonce', 'meta_box_nonce' ); ?> <p> <input type="radio" name="albumsize" value="album_small" <?php echo ($value == 'album_small')?
