RE: [PHP-WIN] Multiple selection in php

If you mean after the page has been sent to the browser, then no, you can do anything with PHP - you would need javascript for that. However, if you mean that you want certain items to appear pre-selected, the you can do it quite simply as follows (I have chosen the simplest example, rather than the most eloquent): print "<select name='test_select' multiple>"; for ($i = 0; $i < 10; $i++) { print "<option value='$i'"; if ($i < 5) print " selected"; print ">"; } This will pre-select the first five entries, but I hope you get the gist...
