Correct. However, if the form posts to itself and I want to retain on
the form the selection(s) made by the user...how would I do that?

Since a multi-select can contain multiple values, you need to use a 
variable that can hold multiple values. If you add brakcets [] to your 
field name for the multi-select, then the values will be contained in 
an array by that name.

<select name="varName[]" multiple size=5>
