The Form Plug-in has a method called fieldValue() which you can you to grab the value of the select element in an array. You can then use the val() method to set the value of the hidden form field. Form Plug-in http://www.malsup.com/jquery/form/ val() http://docs.jquery.com/DOM/Attributes#val.28_val_.29 Example: var oSelectVal = $("select").fieldValue(); $("input:hidden").val(oSelectVal.join(",")); Then there's also the Field Plug-in I'm working on: http://pengoworks.com/workshop/jquery/field.plugin.htm Example: $("input:hidden").setValue( $("select").getValue() ); -Dan
