[nycphp-talk] Newbie question - multi-select list box

Daniel,
Here's the code that generates the multi-select box. What I'm wondering
is how to get the 'selected' to show up when the user has posted (the
form posts to itself and I want to retain the values in the form). I'm
assuming I have to do something like looping through the array for
DL_mCategories since the user can select multiple items.
<td><select name="DL_mCategories[]" size="6" multiple
id="DL_mCategories">
<?php
do {
?>
<option value="<?php echo $row_Search_Cats['DS_ID']?>"><?php
echo $row_Search_Cats['DS_sCatDescrip']?></option>
<?php
} while ($row_Search_Cats =
mysql_fetch_assoc($Search_Cats));
$rows = mysql_num_rows($Search_Cats);
if($rows > 0) {
mysql_data_seek($Search_Cats, 0);
$row_Search_Cats =
mysql_fetch_assoc($Search_Cats);
}
?>
</select></td>
