    Default Pass Multiple Selections?

    We have a form ( [url]http://www.gpnet.biz/quote/quote.htm[/url] ) that has several
    multi selection lists. We're also using formmail.php to process the form
    and send the results to our email. Now here lies the problem; if I make
    multiple selections on any of the lists only one selection comes through to
    the email. For example choosing 10 languages only sends through 1. I'm
    obviously not a programmer so is there any simple method to help with this
    issue? I realize I could use checkboxes, but assuming we stay with the same
    elements what are my options? Thank you for your help :-)

    The documentation for formmail.php gives the following example:

    To add multiple selection fields simply append a "[]" to the end of a field
    name.

    ie: (for multiple selection fields)

    <select name="multi_field[]" size="3" multiple>
    <option>Option 1</option>
    <option>Option 2</option>
    <option>Option 3</option>
    <option>Option 4</option>
    <option>Option 5</option>
    </select>
