From the page where I allow multiple keyword submissions:
echo "<SELECT MULTIPLE SIZE=10 name=keyword[] class=select>\n";
$sql->Query("SELECT idKeyword AS idKeyword, keyword AS keyword FROM
Keyword WHERE (keyword <> '') ORDER BY keyword");
$rowcount = $sql->rows;
for ($i=0; $i < $rowcount; $i++) {
$sql->Fetch($i);
$thumbkeyword = $sql->data["keyword"];
$thumbkeywordUpper = ucwords($sql->data["keyword"]);
echo "<option value=\"$thumbkeyword\">$thumbkeywordUpper\n";
}
echo "</SELECT><BR /><BR />\n";
// NOTE THE name=keyword[] in the SELECT line
The page that retrieves the values:
$keyword = $_POST["keyword"];
if(is_array($keyword))
{
for($i=0; $i<count($keyword); $i++)
{
SQL COMMAND here
}
}
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

Subject: [PHP-WIN] help with multiple select
Hello there....
I'm trying to get the options selected from a multiple select list, but the
only one thing that i get is the first letter from one element, check this
please....
This is the form code.
<form name="form1" method="post" action="checaMultiple.php">
<p>
<select name="Multiplo" multiple size="3">
<option value="Fernando">Fernando</option>
<option value="Felipe">Felipe</option>
<option value="Felix">Felix</option>
<option value="Carlos">Carlos</option>
<option value="Eli">Eli</option>
</select>
</p>
<p>
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit">
</p>
</form>
and this is the code where i try to get the options selected
$multiplo = $_POST['Multiplo'];
echo "Cuantos seleccionados: " . count($multiplo); // In this line I
always get 1
$j = 0;
while($j<count($multiplo)){
echo "No: " . $j . ", " . $multiplo[$j];
$j++;
}
If I select only one element, i get the first letter of that element, but if
I select two or more elements i get the first letter of the last element
selected.
Can somebody tell me what's wrong?
Thanks in advance..
eLFeR....
