Thanks Charlie, I still can't seem to accomplish my goal of just being able to have all the contents of the 2nd listbox in one variable that I can call. Even [EMAIL PROTECTED] didn't work for me for some reason?

I have the onsubmit function returning false just so you can see all of the options in the 2nd <select> box being selected. on page2, it's just form.box2 (which will give you a comma delimited list of all of the options in the <select>). let me know if you have questions.
