[Zope] Converting REQUEST style lists into real lists

[Paula Mangas]

Hi!


you can try to add *:list* to name value. That is:

name="varia" => name="varia:list"


And, when you receive data from form, *varia* will be a list...
You have an easy why to know which ones were choosen, because they have
differents values.

I hope that help,
Paula Mangas
