You have to give the Mutli select box a name as an array. eg:
<SELECT NAME="experts[]" MULTIPLE SIZE=5>
<OPTION VALUE="key1">val1</OPTION>
</SELECT>
then in PHP, you can access $experts as an array.
while (list ($key, $val) = each($experts)) {
print "$key = $val<BR>\n";
}

I writing a software catalog that features "experts",
who a people especially skilled in a piece of
software. My db, has a "software" table and an
"experts" table.
I need to have a page that generates 2 multiple select
boxes, each on with the data from each table.
From there one will be able to choose the software
program and the experts, which will then record the
software-expert relationship in the DB.
The problem is that I don't really understand how to
populate multi select boxes with db data, and then
have the selections passed back as inserts.
Can someone clue me in?
thanks,
Jay
