This will display the selected values    lt  php      if    POST             foreach   POST  select2   as  selected                echo  selected   lt br gt                       gt

If you want PHP to treat   GET  select2   as an array of options just add square brackets to the name of the select element like this   lt select name  select2    multiple      Then you can acces the array in your PHP script   lt  php header  Content-Type  text plain     foreach    GET  select2   as  selectedOption      echo  selectedOption   n       GET may be substituted by   POST depending on the  lt form method       value
