Hello friends, I've create a form containing a SELECT under JavaScript, where the user decide all list's elements. My problem is how can I get all list's elements on PHP. Using $-POST[] I only get the selected option. With my most sincere thanks. Lorca
Lorca: Yes, a SELECT only returns one value. You might want to look at: http://www.weberdev.com/get_example-1739.html It show one way to combine php and javascript variables. tedd PS: Probably a typo, but it's $_POST[] You can for sure have a SELECT select more then one option.
Check out this site http://www.htmlhelp.com/reference/html40/forms/select.html It will explain how to setup a SELECT to allow you to submit multiple options from the list. Jim
