Re^5: Passing 'SELECT MULTIPLE' parameters and CGI

The only difference is that XML (and thus XHTML) requires that you specify a value if you specify the attribute. XHTML does not impose any extra requirements on what the value is.

It's must either be multiple="multiple" in both or in neither.

XHTML does not impose any extra requirements on what the value is. It does, actually. See the DTD: `<!ATTLIST select [...] multiple (multiple) #IMPLIED` [download] That defines the 'multiple' attribute as having an enumerated set of possible values. Though in this case, there's not much enumeration to the set :) EDIT: Actually, on re-reading, I guess I may just be agreeing with you...	[reply] [d/l]
