Re: Mulitple selects from form drop down box

You're passing a bunch of "D1" variables in the form data, each one overwriting the other in the $_POST array. What you need to do is name you select element as an array. <select size="1" name="D1[]" multiple> Now $_POST['D1'] will be an array of all the items that were chosen. ---John Holmes... ps: wouldn't it be easier to select multiple items if you had a size larger than "1"??
