@MauAug 25.2005 — This can be easily done (and is done almost everywhere). ?

You first select all your rows from the database (MySQL, SQLite, etc).

Next, you begin to output the form. You get the part where what you just selected should appear. So, you do a loop to save time. This loop takes the data that you selected and outputs them as check boxes.

@keko2005authorAug 25.2005 — its not a form though, theres gonne be no submit, just a preview button, and a relay button, also i want the selection to highlight when the user clicks it. i dont know if ur familiar with java, but in java theres a JList component where u can highlight ur selection. this is what i would like to do, not a form where the user can choose by checking checkbox's, thanks though.

@MauAug 25.2005 — You just use the same logic I mentioned above, except don't omit the form and check boxes.

Success!
