Hi,


I have the following dropdown.

<select name=&quot;branchmenu&quot; multiple=&quot;true&quot;>
<option value=&quot;1&quot;>1</option>
<option value=&quot;2&quot;>2</option>
<option value=&quot;3&quot;>3</option>
</select>

I have the follwoing code in perl
$val= $cgi->{'form'}{'branchmenu'};

when i am selecting single value it is working perfect.

Iwant to select multiple values If i select multiple values in that time above perl line it is displaying ARRAY(09XXCC) some thing like this.

any body help me to fix this error.

Thanx in advance


 
not familira with the cgimethods, but
@vals= @{$cgi->{'form'}{'branchmenu'}} ;
will give you the array of values you want
and should also work for single values.
If not you can try
if ref($cgi->{'form'}{'branchmenu'}) eq 'ARRAY'){
@vals= @{$cgi->{'form'}{'branchmenu'}} ;}
else{$val= $cgi->{'form'}{'branchmenu'};}
