how to get all values from an select box when no value is selected

[vjayis]

hi

i m having a select box with multiple select option in registration form

so the user can select more than one option at a time and i got those selected

values by declaring the select box name as "category[]" which works fine.,

Is there any way to get all the values that are listed in the selectbox when no

value is selected??

If it could be done, can anyone tell me how to get it through php..


regards

Hey.

That would require you to either:

1. Make client-side code that automatically selects all elements in the select before the form is submitted, if none of them are selected.
2. Have the values stored server-side and use them if the select box is submitted empty.

Which one should be used depends on how your select box works. How it is poulated.
