If you don't put it in a session var, and need to transport it you can use
f. x. :
<input type=hidden name='user_selections' value='<?=implode( "||",
$select )?>'>
This puts double pipe-chars between the array variables. You can later (when
u need to use the vars again) use: $select = explode( "||",
$user_selections );
to put it into an array again.
