[thelist] RE: Arrays and Multiple Select?

[McAtee, Malcolm]

This gives me the following error message:  

"Variable passed to each() is not an array or object in
/export/web/company/philamuseum/public_html/information/development/thankyou
.php3 on line 23"

I find this encouraging actually. Any idea how to correct this?
Thanks Malcolm

foreach is PHP4 construct, try

while(list($key, $value) = each($Type_Of_Event)) {
  echo "$key = $value<br>";
}
