Select a radio input when the row is clicked

I need to have a radio input selected when a user clicks anywhere in the row and highlight the row when the mouse goes trough it. I have been toying with some options but cannot get anything to work apart of those with jquery/javascript, but I'm sure there's some way to make it work with plain html/css.

I know that can be done toying with label+inputs plus "tables" or "display:table-row;" or widths but I 'm just not able to make it work. I'll appreciate any help.

I managed to solve it after hours of reading and testing. Here you have even IE8+ compatible, works for input radio and checkboxes. You can change the width and the colours as you need. The CSS:

.div-table{
    display:table;
    width:100%;
}
.div-table-row{
    display: table-row;
    width: auto;
    clear:both;
}
.div-table-row:hover{
    background-color: #ecf0f1;
}
.div-table-col>input{
    float:left;/*fix for  buggy browsers*/
    display:table-column;
    width: 6%;
    outline: none !important;
}
.div-table-col>label{
    float:left;/*fix for  buggy browsers*/
    display:table-column;
    width: 94%;
}
.div-table-col>input:checked + label{
    background-color: #ecf0f1;
}

And the HTML looks like this(add as many rows as you need):

<form action="" class="div-table">
<div class="div-table-row">
    <div class="div-table-col">
        <input type="radio" name="nametest" id="t1" value="1">
        <label for="t1"> Blablabla</label>
    </div>
</div>
<div class="div-table-row">
    <div class="div-table-col">
        <input type="radio" name="nametest" id="t2" value="2">
        <label for="t2"> Blablabla Blablabla Blablabla Blablabla</label>
    </div>
</div>
</form>

Use css on your trto get the hover effect like:

ROW_CLASS:hover{
    background-color: COLOR
}

And then add a click event handler on all tr with or without a class in jquery like:

$("tr").click(function() {
    $(this).find("input:radio:first").prop("checked", true).trigger("click");
});
