Re: multiple selections in list/menu field

I didn't take the time to read your code too thoroughly, but remember to have your select name to be anything with "[]" at the end of it, from the look of your name field you have something inside the [], you need to get rid of the rec_pd4 and just call it "x[]" or whatever you would like to call it as long as the "[]" is empty :) I hope that made sense!
