Re: preserving multiple values

<cfdump var="#Form#">

<cfdump var="#Form#">

<cfform action="test.cfm" method="post" 
enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded" name="test">

	<cfselect enabled="Yes" name="testselect" size="6" multiple="yes">
	<option value="1">First</option>
	<option value="2">Second</option>
	<option value="3" selected>Third</option>
	<option value="4">Fourth</option>
	<option value="5">Fifth</option>
	<option value="6">Sixth</option>
	</cfselect>

	<cfinput name="submit" type="submit" label="Submit Form">

</cfform>

Displays a list of options. List generated (as variable testselect) is 
made up of the VALUE attribute of the option tags). The example above 
selects a default value (in this case Third) so as to avoid an error if 
they do not choose a option by default.

The example below does not pre-select a value and will re****t an error 
if at least one selection from the list is not made.

<cfdump var="#Form#">

<cfform action="test.cfm" method="post" 
enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded" name="test" preloader="no">

	<cfselect enabled="Yes" name="testselect" size="6" multiple="yes" 
required="yes" message="Make a selection please">
	<option value="1">First</option>
	<option value="2">Second</option>
	<option value="3">Third</option>
	<option value="4">Fourth</option>
	<option value="5">Fifth</option>
	<option value="6">Sixth</option>
	</cfselect>

	<cfinput name="submit" type="submit" label="Submit Form">

</cfform>

Hope that helps!
