For those who might use a HTML <INPUT> type=button instead of a type=submit, here is an example javascript function that will send a string of comma delimited codes from the selected options in a <SELECT MULTIPLE> object. The select multiple object is named "mycombobox[]" on the form. The entire form is passed to the function as "myform" in this example. function runsearch(myform){ myarray = myform.elements['mycombobox[]']; mystatestring = ','; for (i=0; i<myarray.length; i++){ if(myarray.options[i].selected == true){ mystatestring += myarray.options[i].value + ','; } } if(mystatestring==','){mystatestring='';} alert(mystatestring); //for debugging myurl = 'test21.php?formstatestring=' + mystatestring ; window.open(myurl,"","menubar=no,toolbar=no"); return; } The HTML for the button looks like this, presuming a form with a name of "mainform". <INPUT type=button value=Submit onClick="javascript:runsearch(this.document.mainform)"> -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/faq.html.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+26132 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+26132 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+26132
