I am using onegray's Radio button class in one of my projects. the one mentioned here: Best radio-button implementation for IOS
I am using these radio buttons for my answer choices on a quiz. when the user clicks the next button, the labels are populated with new choices. the only problem is that the old ones dont disappear. So when I click next, the new set of buttons are placed on top of the old ones.
what is the simplest way to first check to see if they already exist.. and if so.. delete them.. before displaying the new ones?
here is my code.
@interface LABViewControllerQuiz ()
@end
