I want to name a SELECT 'someSelect[]' for PHP, but I think the '[]' are illegal in JS. Help.

------------------
Just add
ID="ListBoxName"
to your existing listbox, after alteration which will look like :
Name="ListBoxName[]" ID="ListBoxName"
and thereafter it will solve the problem of different names for 
JavaScript and PHP.
Take Care,

------------------
Above doesn't work with Netscape so I prefer naming your script like 
below: 
<select name="var[]" multiple>
And Javascript like: 
variable = documents.forms[0].elements['var[]'];
