RE: [PHP-GENERAL] Form Trouble with Multiple Selections

in the select tag don't forget to put the [] if you are using multiple select. e.g. <SELECT NAME="MyField[]"> <OPTION VALUE="1">1 <OPTION VALUE="2">2 <OPTION VALUE="3">3 </SELECT> you will than have an Array $MyField after you submit the form with all of the submitted values. $MyField[0] will have the first value and count($MyField) will let you know how many items were selected. berber http://www.weberdev.com -----Original Message----- From: Phillip S.

I have a drop down list that a user can select multiple options from. When the data is entered into one field in MySQl however only one of the options selected is entered into the data field.
