Multiple select

[Blixia]

I had a 'multiple' attribute in my select element and only the last selected value would get passed along.

Basically I edited one function and added another. To me it seems 'dirty'.

function getMultiple(pairs,multiName,current)
{
  var multipleValues = [];
  for (var i = current; i<pairs.length; i++)
  {
    if(pairs[i].name === multiName)
        multipleValues.push(pairs[i].value);
    else
        break;
  };
    var obj = makeObject(multiName, encode({name:multiName,value: multipleValues}));
    data = helper.extend(true, data, obj);
    return i;
}

function addPairs(pairs) {
  if (!helper.isArray(pairs)) {
    throw new Error("formSerializer.addPairs expects an Array");
  }
  for (var i=0, len=pairs.length; i<len; i++) 
  {
    if($('[name="'+pairs[i].name+'"]').attr('multiple') )
    {
        i = this.getMultiple(pairs,pairs[i].name,i);
    }
    else
        this.addPair(pairs[i]);
  }
  return this;
}

Also added the following to the public API:

this.getMultiple = getMultiple;

I have NOT tested anything beside that I get a object with named key and an 'array' as value IE:

Object{
name : array[x]
0 : 'value',
1 : 'value',
2 : 'value',
}
etc

I wonder if multiple select is going to be supported?

Using the 2.x version of the plugin,<select name="foo[]" multiple> works fine, you just have to use the proper name attribute with the [] operator on it.

I am currently working on 3.x which will fully implement W3C HTML JSON form submission spec as discussed in #24.

Using 3.x you will be able to do <select name="foo" multiple> and get an array of results.

If you have any other questions, let me know.

Great!

That answers everything for me.
