There is no such element as a list box. So, I assume you mean a select form
element.

Without seeing testable code, nope, can't help you too much. Too many things
to check.
However, do make sure the elements have names, aren't disabled, and your form
doesn't have an input type=file anywhere.
Other than that, the problem could be on the client or on the server. To see
if the problem is on the client, use GET and check that the values are indeed
in the URL. If they are, the problem is with the server-side code grabbing
the values (which is OT here). If not, post a URL with testable code.

The options will only be sent if they are selected. Make sure all items
moved are selected before submitting.

Alternatively, use my small library which helps in this exact situation,
moving items between select boxes. It keeps track of changes in a hidden
field so you can easily get the values added, removed, etc.
