I am trying to get the user selection after all menu has been shown to the user and when the selections are done. Could you please let me know how to get all those information at the end. The way I did it just work for the last menu selection. I suppose I have to use some sort of array but don't know exactly how to do that. I will appriciate your suggestion. Thank you.

Take a look of my complete code:

<html>
<title>
Menu Test
</title>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">

</script>

<?php
extract( $_GET );

if( !isset($submit))// do this if no GET vars
{
print "<form method=\"GET\">";
print "<p>Enter in the number of times below:</p>";
print "<input type=\"text\" name=\"number\" size=\"30\">";
$menu_counter = 0;
print "<input type='hidden' name='menu_counter' value=$menu_counter>";
print "<input name=\"submit\" type=\"submit\" value=\"send\">";
print "<input name=\"reset\" type=\"reset\" value=\"reset\">";
print "</form>" ;
}
else
{
/*if( $submit='submit' )
{

//you insert all of the data from the form element into the DB here
//make sure to use $HTTP_GET_VARS[""]; for you variables
print "Hello World";
} */
//$menu_counter = 0;

//print "<form name = \"myform\" action=\"CheckInsertedItems.php\" method=\"POST\">";

if( $number>0 )
{
$months = array("January","February","March","April","May","June","July", "August","September","October","November","December");
$number = $HTTP_GET_VARS["number"]-1;
$menu_counter =$HTTP_GET_VARS["menu_counter"]+1;
print "<form method=\"GET\">";
print "Select components for term $menu_counter<br>";
//print "<select name=\"something\" value=\"$main_count\" multiple";
//for ($i=0; $i<=count($months); $i++)
?>
<select size="5" name="user_choice" onclick="updateTextBox(this, currentSelections)">
<?php
foreach ($months as $Existing_Item)
{
//print "\t<option value=\"$i\">".$months[$i-1]."\n";
print "<option value=\"$Existing_Item \">$Existing_Item</option>";
}
print "</select>";
print "<br>";
?>

<select size="5" name="user_choice" onclick="updateTextBox(this, currentSelections)">
<?php
foreach ($months as $Existing_Item)
{
//print "\t<option value=\"$i\">".$months[$i-1]."\n";
print "<option value=\"$Existing_Item \">$Existing_Item</option>";
}
print "</select>";
print "<br>";
?>

<textarea name = 'currentSelections' readonly="readonly" rows = "3" cols = "20"></textarea>
<br>
<?php

print "<input type='hidden' name='number' value=$number>";
print "<input type='hidden' name='menu_counter' value=$menu_counter>";
print "<input name=\"submit\" type=\"submit\" value=\"submit\">";
print "<input name=\"reset\" type=\"reset\" value=\"reset\">";
print "</form>";
}
//print "</form>";
else
{
// do whatever happens after the number of forms has been filled

print "<br>You choice are: <br>";
$InputDomain = $currentSelections;

$length = strlen($InputDomain);
$i = 0;
$counter = 1;
while($i < $length)
{
if ($InputDomain[$i] == "\n")
{
$ArrayOfDomain[] = trim($SelectedInputDomain);
$OrderNo[] = $counter;
$val1 = trim($SelectedInputDomain);
$val2 = $counter;

?>

<?php
print "$val1 & $val2 <br>";
$counter++;
$SelectedInputDomain = NULL;
$i++;
}
else
{
$SelectedInputDomain = "$SelectedInputDomain" . "$InputDomain[$i]";
$i++;
}
}
}
}
?>
</body>

There is no need in creating a new thread everytime you've made an adjustment to your script. I've done a quick count and can see 8 threads about this, and I'm sure there are more on other pages. Also put your PHP inside [*php][*/php] tags. (Remove the *'s)

I'll try and help soon, I'm just about to pop out now though. But yeah, in future you don't need to keep creating new threads, simply reply to the one you've already made.

$menu_counter = 0;
print "<input type='hidden' name='menu_counter' value=$menu_counter>";
print "<input name=\"submit\" type=\"submit\" value=\"send\">";
print "<input name=\"reset\" type=\"reset\" value=\"reset\">";
print "</form>" ;
}
else
{
/*if( $submit='submit' )
{

//you insert all of the data from the form element into the DB here

print "Hello World";
} */
//$menu_counter = 0;

//print "<form name = \"myform\" action=\"CheckInsertedItems.php\" method=\"POST\">";
