This should work: <input type="hidden" name="chosen_birth_month" value="<?echo $birth_month?>">
If the hidden input structure name is the same as the radio buttons' name, you could run into trouble. Also, you forgot quotes around the 'hidden'. Why try to use the form name as a class (survey->'$birth_month')?
