THanks CODE <form method="post" action="<?php echo $PHP_SELF;?>"> <select name="playertoedit[]"> <option value="0" <?php if (empty($playertoedit)) echo "selected"; ?>>- select -</option> <?php for ($ix=0; $ix<$ii; $ix++) { echo " <option value='$firstandlastnamearray[$ix]'"; echo ">",$firstandlastnamearray[$ix],"</option>\n"; }?> </select> <br> <input type="submit" value="submit" name="submit"> </form> $testx = $_POST['playertoedit']; /This should say 'Array' / echo "Skill sets posted as: .$testx";
