I have a requirement for a select on a form that has to be able to get multiple values in the form processing PHP side. You just multiple to the <select...> tag to be able to select multiple values, but on the PHP side the $_POST value for the form only has the last one selected.
I believe the common way to accomplish this is to add [] to the form element's name, which persuades PHP into treating it like an array:
        <select name="nation[]" ...>
