>1. I am hoping to read the entire range of values from a field in my MySQL

<?php
    if (isset($selected)){
        $selected_list = implode(', ', $selected);
        $where = " where not id in ($selected_list) ";
    }
    else{
        $where = '';
    }
    $query = "select id, whatever from blah $where ";
    $choices = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());
    echo "<SELECT NAME=selected>\n";
    while (list($id, $whatever) = mysql_fetch_row($choices)){
        echo "<OPTION $id>$whatever</OPTION>\n";
    }
    echo "</SELECT>\n";
?>

>2. I have created a session variable $session.  This is an array.  I have a
dynamic variable, >${"myvalue$counter"}, which has particular values

It would probably be easier to just make a 2-D array instead of dealing with
variable variables...

>3. This is similar to above, but it refers to functions.  Is it possible to
have dynamic >function names that actually change from where you call it?

You can *call* a variable-named function, but I don't think you can define
them like that...
