problem with dropdown-list

[Anon]

hi,

when submit a form, the value of a drop-down-list is passed to a result page.
when nothing is selected in the dropdown all entrys will be viewed in the result list - when something is selected the refered value will viewed in the result page.
the problem: when option size=2 all works fine. but when option size=1 by default the first value in the list is selected and the option to view all entrys doesn't work.

here the code:

<form name="form1" method="post" action="result.php">
<?

$result = mysql_query("SELECT DISTINCT ID, Searchentry FROM lastminute ORDER BY Veranstaltungen,Badereisen,Busreisen,Flugreisen", $link);

  echo "<SELECT name='select_lastminute[]' size='1'>\n";

  if ($myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result)) 
  {      
  	do {
  	$varID = $myrow[ID];
  	print "<OPTION value=\"$varID\">$myrow[Searchentry]</OPTION>\n";
  	} while ($myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result));

  	print "</SELECT>";
  }   
  ?>
    <br>
    <input type=submit value=submit>
    <input type="reset" name="Reset" value="Reset">
  </form>

result page:

$count = count($select_lastminute);

          if ($count == "") 
          { 
            //print all results
          } 
          else 
          {
          //print the selected value
          }

would be very apprecheated for help. i didn't find a solution for this problem.

regards,
christian

There is something I don't understand here..
AFAIK, you use an array as a name for a select box if you can select more option from that select box. But in your case the select doesn't have the 'multiple' option...
Could that be the problem ?
