Hi-

It would be infinitely easier for the cgi interface that I'm writing with
cgicc if I were able to have an html form that had a group of elements like:

<h1>Pizza topings:</h1>

<SELECT NAME="toppings" *MULTIPLE* SIZE=5>
<OPTION VALUE="mushrooms">mushrooms
<OPTION VALUE="greenpeppers">green peppers
<OPTION VALUE="onions">onions
<OPTION VALUE="tomatoes">tomatoes
<OPTION VALUE="olives">olives
</SELECT>

or alternatively a group of checkboxes that all had the same name but
returned different values in an array, like this:

<input type="checkbox" name="remove[]" value="mushrooms">
<input type="checkbox" name="remove[]" value="green peppers">
<input type="checkbox" name="remove[]" value="onions">
<input type="checkbox" name="remove[]" value="tomatoes">
<input type="checkbox" name="remove[]" value="olives">

I can't seem to get cgicc to handle forms like this.
Any help would be appreciated.  The reason I'd like this approach
is because unlike my pizza example the form elements I'm dealing with
won't be static and
will be changing all the time and I'd rather not have to write a bunch
of convoluted
 code to reference the changing values by name from the form.

-Thanks

Jason
