Tricky one?

I know i have passed the values from a drop-down menu as an array. I just cant recall or figure out how i did it. Does anyone know if its possible to do like this or something similar to get an array-
<select name="animals">
<option value="species, animal">animal</option>
</select>

I know that you can use "mulitple" to allow you to make a selection of choices

<select name="animals" Mulitple>

but if you just want the results sent as an array instead of a string i think you just have to put [] after the name ie

<select name="animals[]" multiple>
<option value="animal>animal</option>
</select>

What i need is actually this

<select name="activities[]">
<option value="points, activity">activity</option>
</select>

to return:
Array ( [0] => points, [1] => activity)

but it returns
Array ( [0] => points, activity )

And what multiple does is that it gives me a different menu allowing me to pass multiple selections. While I have one selection with two, comma separated, values.

I guess this could be done with strtok() somehow. But i'm almost sure i have done it as just passing an array...

Yes in that case i am not sure how you can pass an option as a array if you can

you are prob best of using strtok or taking the '[]' and 'mulitple' away and passing the value as a string like before

<select name="animals">
<option value="species,animal">animal</option>
</select>

then using explode to add to break the string into an array

ie $array = explode(",", $animals)

That was easy..
Thanx!
