Re: Select values in an array???

Look, I'm not trying to start a flame war or anything, but you CANNOT select MULTIPLE items from a select element without using "multiple" in the tag. I looked at your link, and it doesn't have any select elements, much less multiple select elements. Prehaps you're confusing checkbox elements with select elements. Take a look here for multiple select elements.... http://jobsearch.monster.com/ Rick Emery wrote:

I HAVE selected multiple items without including MULTIPLE. The following link displays a form in which there are multiple SELECTS with the same name. Upon processing the form on submit, I do retrieve all selected values, not just the last. To check for yourself, open the link and view source. Yes, this page works... http://www.preferred-pet.com/volunteer/volunteer.php ----- Original Message ----- From: "John Nichel" <jnichel@by-tor.com> To: "Rick Emery" <remery@emeryloftus.com> Cc: <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Tuesday, October 29, 2002 9:54 AM Subject: Re: [PHP] Select values in an array??? Then you were not able to select multiple values. If you don't include the "multiple", it will only allow you to select one value. Rick Emery wrote:

You do if you want to select multiple values from a select element. Otherwise, you can only select one. Rick Emery wrote:
