I don't think I was very clear in explaining what I am trying to do.  The 
form submission only happens once the user is ready to submit it.  The 
next/previous options are url links to the same page only showing the next 
or previous set of 15 results.  If you have chosen any checkboxes on the 
first page these are forgotten as soon as you go to the next or previous 
set.  I want some way of storing the selected userid's using javascript so 
that a url var is passed in the next/previous links which holds the userid 
list which can then be added to or taken away from.

Once the form is submitted then the entire selected list can be passed in a 
hidden field.

Any clearer???

Cheers

Dave ;)
