single values into sql field

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

i have a form which i want the user to able to select multiple answers. But i want the answers to be stored into a single field on the mysql table in the back end. e.g

the user may select red + blue + green and so in the field i want it to show red,blue,green.

is it best to list the options in like an array or how do i do this as i dont do much PHP and so am a bit rusty.

hope you can help
