For a multiple select element, you need to loop over the options and check which ones are selected.

Hi acoder, thanks x your reply.

I write this for your suggestion:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1.     function options_value_selezionati_join(lista)
  2.     {
  3.         var s = "";
  4.         for(var i = 0; i < lista.options.length; i++)
  5.  
  6.         {
  7.             if(lista.options[i].selected) s += "-" + lista.options[i].value;  
  8.  
  9.         }
  10.  
  11.         return s.substr(1);
  12.  
  13.    }
  14.  
  15. ...
  16.  
  17.             <a href="javascript:(options_value_selezionati_join(document.FORM1.tec)+';'+options_value_selezionati_join(document.FORM1.opr));">  

The values of select it's correct.... but not open alert "OK" and not close window popup and not insert a value in the hidden field called "tec" in form open in the page mother.
.... :(


Can you help me?

All you've done is constructed a string without setting it to anything.

  1. window.opener.document.FORM1.tec.value = s;
Can you see where you were going wrong?

The function is expecting a list/select object, not a string, so pass in one select reference.

I need pass this string:

<a href="javascript:options_value_selezionati_join(do cument.FORM1.tec+';'+document.FORM1.opr)">

Any idea?

Pass two lists instead of a string and then loop over both and concatenate the string inside the function.
