i have a select menu (using multiple) that i submit to a php file..and i want to process all the variables that are transmitted in that menu
basically i have 2 select menus....1 is a list of skills...the other is blank...then the user clicks the skills they have , which adds them to the blank select menu. when they hit the submit button, the php file processes what was submitted by using $_POST
the only problem is, it is submitted like this (i can tell by using GET)
skill=Woodworking&skill=Metalworking
so if i test it, $skill will just = metalworking
so to fix this, i thought i could rename the select something like <skill name = "skill[]">
however this seems to break the javascript. so is there a better way to do this? maybe i need to change my javascript? (i realize this is a php forum, heh..but any help would be apprecicated)
