I have a html form which has a select list box from which you can select multiple values because its multiple property is set to multiple. Consider form method is \'GET\'. T
You can use this code to retrieve values from multiple select combo box
HTML:
<form action="c3.php" method="post">
<select name="ary[]" multiple="multiple">
<option value="Option 1" >Option 1</option>
<option value="Option 2">Option 2</option>
<option value="Option 3">Option 3</option>
<option value="Option 4">Option 4</option>
<option value="Option 5">Option 5</option>
</select>
<input type="submit">
</form>
PHP:
<?php
$values = $_POST['ary'];
foreach ($values as $a){
echo $a;
}
?>
You could do like this too. It worked out for me.
<form action="ResultsDulith.php" id="intermediate" name="inputMachine[]" multiple="multiple" method="post">
<select id="selectDuration" name="selectDuration[]" multiple="multiple">
<option value="1 WEEK" >Last 1 Week</option>
<option value="2 WEEK" >Last 2 Week </option>
<option value="3 WEEK" >Last 3 Week</option>
<option value="4 WEEK" >Last 4 Week</option>
<option value="5 WEEK" >Last 5 Week</option>
<option value="6 WEEK" >Last 6 Week</option>
</select>
<input type="submit"/>
</form>
Then take the multiple selection from following PHP code below. It print the selected multiple values accordingly.
$shift=$_POST['selectDuration'];
print_r($shift);
// CHANGE name="select2" TO name="select2[]" THEN
<?php
$mySelection = $_GET['select2'];
$nSelection = count($MySelection);
for($i=0; $i < $nSelection; $i++)
{
$numberVal = $MySelection[$i];
if ($numberVal == "11"){
echo("Eleven");
}
else if ($numberVal == "12"){
echo("Twelve");
}
...
...
}
?>
I fix my problem with javascript + HTML. First i check selected options and save its in a hidden field of my form:
for(i=0; i < form.select.options.length; i++)
if (form.select.options[i].selected)
form.hidden.value += form.select.options[i].value;
Next, i get by post that field and get all the string ;-) I hope it'll be work for somebody more. Thanks to all.
foreach ($_POST["select2"] as $selectedOption)
{
echo $selectedOption."\n";
}

You can iterate it directly like this
foreach ($_GET['select2'] as $value)
echo $value."\n";
or you can do it like this
$selectvalue=$_GET['select2'];
foreach ($selectvalue as $value)
echo $value."\n";
