If you mean after the page has been sent to the browser, then no, you can do
anything with PHP - you would need javascript for that. However, if you
mean that you want certain items to appear pre-selected, the you can do it
quite simply as follows (I have chosen the simplest example, rather than the
most eloquent):
print "<select name='test_select' multiple>";
for ($i = 0; $i < 10; $i++)
{
print "<option value='$i'";
if ($i < 5) print " selected";
print ">";
}
This will pre-select the first five entries, but I hope you get the gist...
