Give the list box an id of "invitation_who _email" and access the element using document.getEle mentById("invit ation_who_email ") instead.

Hello Sir !

Can you explain me in brief.....
Excuseme Sir, I want to store List box element in Database, these elements are multiple so I use array to store them in database. Sir, I use Javascript to add some text(value) in List box from textarea. But Sir, in front end I see values appears in List box but they dont get added as option values of List box. Sir and when I use array at that time error occured.
Sir , tell me any or give me any trics to add values in List box when user enter in textarea or text box which is single or multiple. If values are multiple then they are seperated by comma or white space, then they are differentiate in List Box... After it when I click submit button then these List Box values(multiple or single) will going to Database in the Form of string.
Thanks for your reply, Sir . Please think on my problem , do action on it and give me your very important suggesion !

Ok !

Bye !

Put your form elements within form tags.

Your JavaScript code doesn't match with the HTML.

Your select element: [HTML]<select id="invitation_ who_email[]" multiple name="invitatio n_who_email[]" size="30" >[/HTML]should be [HTML]<select id="invitation_ who_email" multiple name="invitatio n_who_email[]" size="30" >[/HTML]and use document.getEle mentById("invit ation_who_email ") to refer to the form.

No problem. Let us know how you get on.

PS. document.getEle mentById("invit ation_who_email ") would refer to the select element, not the form.
