I am having trouble with a form I am creating.

If I use a check boxes to capture the data, it will create a list of
values seperated by commas. For example, a user checks off three boxes
1: blue; 2: orange; 3: white.  As a result, FORM.color =
blue,orange,white.  This is fine except if my options were 1:
blue,purple; 2: orange; 3: white.  Here, FORM.color =
blue,purple,orange,white which means I have 4 answers even though the
user only selected three anwsers.  I would like to be able to seperate
the items but I'm not sure how.

Ideally, I would like to have FORM.color =
"blue,purple","orange","white".

Perhaps the answer lies in doing something to the answers before they
get passed to the form processing page.  Something to indicate that the
, in blue,purple is just plain text and not a delimiter for the evenual
list.

Any help would be appreciated,
Michel
