If you see your page in HTML you can see that two radio buttons will be create, with 2 different ids: gender1 and gender2. You can access to your value with:

var foo = document.getElementById("gender1").checked;

In this case, if the first is checked (foo==true), the other will be not checked.

A more scalable solution is using:

document.getElementsByName("gender")[index].checked

where index is a number that indentify all radio buttons with the name "gender". You can make a FOR to cycle the array and find at which index checked is true.

The solution was for me to pass the element value into the java script function under is my updated code

Jsp

<s:radio name="gender" id= "gender" list="#{'1':'Male','2':'Female'}" onChange="genderChange(this.value)"/>

Javascript function

function genderChange(value){
 var gendervalue;
 genderValue = value;
 alert(gendervalue);

}
