Assuming you want to get the list of people (who have been moved to the
right hand box) after the form is submitted, you have the following problem:

> with the form


If all the items in the right hand box were selected you would be able to
use #form.choiceBox# to get the list of people IDs.

Alternatively, you could build a list of these people IDs in a hidden form
field. In the MoveOver() function, aswell as adding the item from the left
hand box to the right hand box, you would also append the person ID to the
list in the hidden form field value. That way, when your form is submitted,
you have a list of selected people to use.

Make any more sense? Could you post the MoveOver() function?
