I have a multi select pick list in an html

<FORM ACTION="/progs/read.php" METHOD="POST" target="_blank">^M

<label for="CATEGORIES">Select one or more categories</label>^M
<SELECT MULTIPLE name="CATEGORIES" size="10" id="CATEGORIES"
class="select">
<option value="41">Auto Manufacturers</option>
<option value="27">Biodiesel</option>
<option value="38">Component Suppliers</option>
<option value="39">Conversion Companies</option>
<option value="40">Dealers</option>
<option value="28">Electricity</option>
</select>

in read.php i try to read the value by:

$categories=htmlspecialchars($_POST['CATEGORIES']);


then try to print out the value and all I get is the last value.


I tried to put in an array like:

$categories=array($_POST['CATEGORIES']);

and still got the same result.

What am I doing wrong?

Thank you
