What you can do is replicate all <OPTION>s with hidden fields:
<SELECT name="myselect[]">
<OPTION value="1">Al di Meola</OPTION>
<OPTION value="2">John McLaughlin</OPTION>
...
</SELECT>
<INPUT name="replica[1]" type="hidden" value="Al di Meola" />
<INPUT name="replica[2]" type="hidden" value="John McLaughlin"
/>
...
But I fail to see why so doing would be useful. Your dynamic form is created
after some query; therefore why not simply call the same query after
submission to obtain all possible values of the options?
Or perhaps I failed to understand your problem.
