Can you please clarify which version of DDCL you are using?  I am not sure what 
you mean by version: 6.
(a thought -- if you mean DDCL 1.3 and jQuery 1.6, then there is the problem 
right there.  DDCL 1.3 does NOT work properly with jQuery 1.6)

FYI - I have had no other reports of problems with what gets posted on form 
submit. DDCL does not affect how the posting process works, it just provides an 
alternate way of visually affecting the underlying <OPTION>.  So can you 
confirm that your form submit works as you want it to if you leave DDCL out of 
the environment?

And can you also test it with a different browser as well (Safari, Chrome, IE)?

<select id="s6" name="products[]" multiple="multiple">
echo "<option>Product 1</option>";
echo "<option>Product 2</option>";
echo "<option>Product 3</option>";
</select>

And now you can loop through your table : $_POST["products"]

With the posting by vincent (and no further details from the original author), 
I am going to consider this issue closed.

Hi,
This is what I have on the form:

<select id="s1" multiple="multiple" size="1" name="summary3[]">
<option>Short</option>
<option>Medium</option>
<option>Long</option>
</select>

And on the submit file I have: '$_POST[summary3]'

But on the display I get: Array. Before using the square brackets on the 
<select> tag I was only getting the last selection. Any ideas?

I am using DDCL 1.4 with the .js files provided in the zip file as used on the 
sample html files.
