Improving the way something works

[Toby King]

Hi there

I have a program which is reading a list of names from a table in the database. 
 I am wanting a user to select specific names and then these names will be 
available in the rest of the application (i.e. a cut down list from over 100 to 
approx 20).

Basically I have a select box where are user can click on a name in the left 
box and move it to the right box.  This part all works.  What I am hoping 
someone can tell me is the following.  Is there anyway that when a person 
clicks on a name in the left that it is automatically highlighted in the 
right-hand side box.

Thanks in advance

Here is the code that I have.

<script language="JavaScript">
        <!-- hide
        
        function customSubmit(whereto) { //if edit change the action to include
                document.forms[0].action = "content1.cfm" + whereto
                document.forms[0].submit()
        }
        
        function moveOver()  {
                var boxLength = document.choiceForm.choiceBox.length;
                var selectedItem = document.choiceForm.available.selectedIndex;
                var selectedText = 
document.choiceForm.available.options[selectedItem].text;
                var selectedValue = 
document.choiceForm.available.options[selectedItem].value;
                var i;
                var isNew = true;
                
                if (boxLength != 0) {
                        for (i = 0; i < boxLength; i++) {
                                thisitem =

                                        break;
