Dual Select List

[horizon]

Hi,

would someone know how to convert the left side (textbox) into the same thing as the right has (select box) also by modifying the JS code from the example of this URL:

?

It would be a really good feature to have if two select options were used from side-to-side rather than a textbox and a select list. In the mean time, I was wondering if it were possible to post the variables to a PHP output file with arrays. Right now, only a JS script function returns those values and PHP cannot capture them.

What have you tried on your own? If you've got an adjusted version that you're beating your head against, then post it in CODE blocks.

One approach would be to store the needed information in a container that PHP and JS can both interact with. Cookies and "hidden" input fields are two possible approaches.

You can use AJAX for your JS to communicate with PHP. To make it easy on yourself, use the Prototype or JQuery JS libraries, as they have a lot of cool functionality that you won't need to re-invent.
