Multiple Select boxes in one form

Question

Does anyone know if it is possible to have multiple select
boxes inside one form? I have six different select boxes that are
generated by six separate queries. The action page for all six
select boxes is the same so I just want one submit button so users
don't get confuse. I don't want to cluster up the page with submit
buttons but I may resort to that option.
My problem is the select boxes generate a number and when
that number is submitted I want to pass two other variables with it
to the action page. I tried putting a "Form" tag around the 6
select boxes. Inside each select box I tried to add an "Input
type="hidden"" and give thte name and values that I needed. That
worked for the first select box but when I tried the second select
box it used the hidden values for the first select box.
If anyone can help, I would greatly appreciate it. Or if you
have any other suggestions I am open to any.
Thanks

Paross1,
I wasn't thinking about that and you gave me a great idea.
Here is how I changed my select boxes.
<cfform
action="Resolution_History.cfm?year=#year#&sessiontype=#sessiontype#&btype=res"
name="form">
<select name="SRINPUT">
<option value="">SR
<CFOUTPUT Query="findSR"><Option
Value="#BILLNUMBER#">#BILLNUMBER#</cfoutput>
</select>
<select name="HRINPUT">
<option value="">HR
<CFOUTPUT Query="findHR"><Option
Value="#BILLNUMBER#">#BILLNUMBER#</cfoutput>
</select>
<select name="SCRINPUT">
<option value="">SCR
<CFOUTPUT Query="findSCR"><Option
Value="#BILLNUMBER#">#BILLNUMBER#</cfoutput>
</select>
<br>
<select name="HCRINPUT">
<option value="">HCR
<CFOUTPUT Query="findHCR"><Option
Value="#BILLNUMBER#">#BILLNUMBER#</cfoutput>
</select>
<select name="SJRINPUT">
<option value="">SJR
<CFOUTPUT Query="findSJR"><Option
Value="#BILLNUMBER#">#BILLNUMBER#</cfoutput>
</select>
<select name="HJRINPUT">
<option value="">HJR
<CFOUTPUT Query="findHJR"><Option
Value="#BILLNUMBER#">#BILLNUMBER#</cfoutput>
</select>
<INPUT TYPE="Submit" VALUE="Submit" alt="submit
button">
</cfform>
On the action page I need the below IF statement to work so
it will set the variables. It isn't working at this time. Its not
bringing the values of billnumber, houseorig or the billtype.
Do you have any thoughts? I know it is close. I need to set
all of the inputs to input4 to generate my queries.
<cfif form.srinput gt 0>
<cfset houseorig eq "s">
<cfset billtype eq "r">
<cfset srinput eq input4>
<cfelseif form.hrinput gt 0>
<cfset houseorig eq "h">
<cfset billtype eq "r">
<cfset hrinput eq input4>
<cfelseif form.scrinput gt 0>
<cfset houseorig eq "sc">
<cfset billtype eq "r">
<cfset scrinput eq input4>
<cfelseif form.hcrinput gt 0>
<cfset houseorig eq "hc">
<cfset billtype eq "r">
<cfset hcrinput eq input4>
<cfelseif form.sjrinput gt 0>
<cfset houseorig eq "sj">
<cfset billtype eq "r">
<cfset sjrinput eq input4>
<cfelse>
<cfset houseorig eq "hj">
<cfset billtype eq "r">
<cfset hjrinput eq input4>
</cfif>
