Problem after moving data between select boxes

[SimonFinn]

Hi guys,

I have this code that i have recieved from someone to move data between two select boxes. I am having problems retrieving the data when it is posted to an ASP page. If i dont move any data using the code i can access it. If i do click one of the buttons that executes the function the data moves and is visible in the other box.

But when i post it i cannot retrieve the data.

Has anyone got any ideas on the problem?

Thanks Si.

the code:
function moveIt(action, thisOption){
if (thisOption == -1){
return false;
}
if (action == 'add'){
c2 = document.getElementById("clients2&quot
c2.options[c2.options.length] = new Option (document.myForm.clients1[thisOption].text, document.myForm.clients1[thisOption].value)
c1 = document.getElementById("clients1&quot
c1.options[thisOption] = null
}
if (action == 'del'){
c1 = document.getElementById("clients1&quot
c1.options[c1.options.length] = new Option (document.myForm.clients2[thisOption].text, document.myForm.clients2[thisOption].value)
c2 = document.getElementById("clients2&quot
c2.options[thisOption] = null
}
}

Kinda hard to know when we don't know how your
submission routine runs.

In the submission routine you could run thru
the clients2 options and select them before you
submit--

function subfrm(){
 d = document.myForm.clients2;
 if(d.selectedIndex == -1){
   for(i=0;i<d.options.length;i++) {
      d.options[i].selected = true; }}
}

If that doesn't do it supply all the form elements
that apply with the next post.

I just found out what the problem was it was only posting the selected options, so i put a function in to select them before posting.

Thanks for the post though.

Cheers Si
