passing list boxes from html to asp

[frogggg]

Someone told me that a listbox is really an array, so when it is passed to a variable it needs brackets or something? In fact, either the querystring or the variable is not getting the value.
What needs to be fixed here?

dim CareerLevel
CareerLevel = request.querystring("selQueryLevel&quot
response.write &quot;<input type=text name='selQueryLevel' value=&quot; & selCareerLevel & &quot;>&quot;

Thanks.
