Displaying a list box Array

[sarcus25]

Hi i have a list box named "los". What I want to do is display each value in the list box that was selected. In the query string I can see the values for each item selected in the list box but if I get a count like so: "count($_GET['los'])" it displays a value of "1" even through I have just selected and submitted more than one item to that script. It always just displays that last Item that I selected in that list box. Below is a sample of the code that I am using to try to break up and display the list box array.


foreach($_GET['los'] as $key => $value){

echo $key,": ", $value,"<br>";

}


Thanks in advance

Never Mind found a simular post on the net. The problem was that the name of the list box had to be followed with brackets
ex. los[] the brackets specify that this is an array. Hope this doesn't drive anyone as crazy as this drove me.

Cheers,

Rename your list box to be called [tt]los[][/tt]. Then los will be an array which will hold all the selected values and you can reference them via [tt]$_GET['los'][0][/tt] and subsequent numbers or use a for loop to loop through them.
