I got this code from somewhere awhile back so I can't give the proper
credits.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
<script type="text/javascript">
//Expand form with a new fields if needed.
var nfiles = 0;
function Expand()
{
nfiles++;
if( nfiles < 10 )
{
var adh = "<select name='lbAO" + nfiles + "' ID='lbAO" + nfiles +
"' size='1' id='select'>";
adh += "<option value='AND'>And</option>";
adh += ""<option value='OR'>Or</option>";
adh += "<option value='NOT'>but Not</option>";
adh += "</select> ";
adh += "<input name='tf" + nfiles + "' id='tf" + nfiles + "'
type='text' size='30' maxlength='30' value='' />";
adh += "<br />";
files.insertAdjacentHTML('BeforeEnd',adh);
}
return false;
}
</script>
---html area ----
<input name="Button" type="button" value="Additional Item"
onclick="return(Expand());" />
<div id="files"> </div>
But since this is being returned to php you could substitute
name='lbAO" + nfiles ... with name='lbAO[]"
name='tf" + nfiles ... with name='tf[]"
