I'm not sure what it's called, a data entry form with long list to
choose from where you select with shift, control & drag then hit the
arrow button to move those into the box on the left. A nudge in that
direction? Just knuckle down & build it myself?

I'm just getting back into this for some updates after no coding for a
year or so, it's not something I do full time <g>.

I spent ages looking for this about a month ago. I eventually discovered
that it is called "Option Transfer". It is actually nothing to do with php
really.

Beautiful, thank you. I don't normally do much with javascript but this
is a good reason to.

You can't do it with PHP - PHP runs on the server, and what you want
will have to run on the client. Try javascript.
