Multiple selections from a select list 2

[tviman]

How do you code a select list so that you can choose multiple selections from the list?

There's always a better way. The fun is trying to find it!

Just add the

multiple

attribute to your select list:

<select name=&quot;wibble&quot; multiple>
   <option value=&quot;1&quot;>1</option>
   <option value=&quot;2&quot;>2</option>
   <option value=&quot;3&quot;>3</option>
</select>

Hope this helps!

Thanks loads! I wasn't aware of the "multiple" attribute.
Have a star on me!

For information, if you were using XHTML it would be:
[tt]
<select name=&quot;wibble&quot; multiple=&quot;multiple&quot;>
...
[/tt]

Thanks to you too, Chris. This is the first time I've ever been asked by a client to provide multiple selection capabilities. I had searched through my library of manuals and couldn't come up with anything. Tek-Tips comes through again!
