<SELECT ... multiple> problems

noninterleaved

Senior member
I am trying to put together a form that contains a multiple selection. What I have is something like

<select name=&quot;mult_select&quot; multiple size=3>
<option>Opt1
<option>Opt2
<option>Opt3
</select>


however, when it gets sent to the server (either GET or POST) only the first selection gets sent. I have verified this by looking at the GET QueryString. It reads like

my_app.asp?mult_select=Opt1&amp;

even if I have all of the options selected. Anyone know a way to do this? I have searched all over the web and no help...
 
Try this:

<select name=&quot;mult_select&quot; multiple size=3>
<option value=&quot;Opt1&quot;>Option 1 (text after > will show up in the list)
<option value=&quot;Opt2&quot;>Option 2
<option value=&quot;Opt3&quot;>Option 3
</select>


 
I figured it out... I had a function that was trimming all of the input, and when it did that it was changing the selections on the forms....

Thanks!
