Hello.
I am trying to use javascript menu popup box to work with php. Php does not recognize an array without [] after the name of a field. But when I use [] after the name, the source code for javascript menu popup box does not work... Is there anyway to get around that problem?
attached: javascript for popup multiple select menu
