post 2 values in option problem

Hi
i have an asp code which is somewhat like this:
<select name=test>
<option value="<%=parRs.Fields ("ProductId").Value%>">
<%=parRs.Fields ("description").Value%>
</option>
</select>

when i submit this page i can retrieve the value of the option box test, which is the productid.

I want to send the both the id and descritption in the select test, and how do i retrieve them on the next page?

I know we can use the id and open a db conection on the next page and retrieve the description, but this is a bit bulky when we have many selection boxes...

Anyone knows how to do this?
thnx

it's ok i got the answer was a previous post on the forum.
thnx
