HTML HELP! i know this is suppose to go under help…but i need an answer urgently and i know a lot of people are view this forum, so move it if you want later. thanks mod.

anyway, HELP! when i use a \<select multiple\> thingy, and i select multiple things, how does PHP receive this information?  
say i used  
\<form method=“post” action=“blahblah.php”\>  
\<select name=“test” multiple\>  
\<option value=“1”\>1\</option\>  
\<option value=“2”\>2\</option\>\</select\>\</form\>

if i selected both, how does php get the information?  
i tried $HTTP\_POST\_VARS[‘test’], but it only gives me the 2, not the 1. how do i get them both? what kind of array?
