hey guys and gals,
here is my problem:
i have a form, and recently my crazy mind decided to make 5 select/menus
that belong to the same field ("features"),(each select/menu has many
options, that is why i chose the select menu not, an another way)

SO: the options for "features" field are let us say: (menu value)

smart 1, happy 2, crasy 3 , depressed 4, frustrated 5, lazy 6, dumb 7

now, the user has to choose 4 from them,

So: i made 5 select/menus to select from (each one at a time)

so far so good, if u are still reading, am impressed and i really thank you
:)


now here is what i did:
i named every select/menu "features[]"
and i used implode to get the values to a variable $all like this:

$all = implode(",", $HTTP_POST_VARS['features']);


i succeeded to have the value ( for my example) 0,0,0,0,5,0,0
now i want to get the value of $all in the database, (so i can spit it out
later with an "echo" or something)
i made a field in the database with ENUM, with the "list" inserted in it
sequetially

Question: am i doing it right, what am i doing wrong, and where can i go
from there?

if u have a better suggestion please do not hesitate to suggest with some
"code"

thanks
Jim
