radio button inside a datatable

Hi I have to place radio button for each record inside a datatable, do some javascript validations and get the selected record in my backing bean. For that I have seen this
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/rational/library/05/1213_he/.. Looks to be ok but lot of javascript. There is script to unselect one radio button when we select the other. Is there any component in tomahawk which makes life easy

I am using jdk1.4, tomahawk-1.1.8.

t:selectOneRadio with layout="spread" may indeed help in this.

Here's another example which is much more simple and uses much less cumbersome Javascript than the one at IBM's article: http://balusc.blogspot.com/2006/06/using-datatables.html#SelectRowByRadioButton

some changes to this http://wiki.apache.org/myfaces/Display_Radio_Buttons_In_Columns works. But forceId is not working for <t:selectOne Radio/> any idea?
But this saved a lot of javascript..
