Multiple Select Box Problems

[VB-Mike]

Anyone have any ideas how to pass the selected items from a multi-select box to a new page. I am presently doing it with several text boxes with the querystring option but the multi-select box does not want to go.

to have a multi-select box on a page do

<select name="whatever" multiple>
  <option value="1">first choice</option>
  <option value="2">second choice</option>
  <option value="3">third choice</option>
  <option value="4">fourth choice</option>
</select>

then on your handling page, the way (or A way) you get at all the selected values is:

myString = Request.Form("whatever")
myArray = Split(myString, ", ", -1, 1)

for i = LBound(myArray) to UBound(myArray)

  Response.Write myArray(i) & "<br>"

next

the split command will split a string into an array, here splitting on the ", "

hope this helps, and good luck
