input from help

I am not sure how to ask this question efficiently but please bare with me

 

1. I have an input form that has a number of drop down boxes containing workshops.  These workshops also have ratings next to them that the user selects through radio buttons. (input for code below)

 

2. I have a table set up with a stud id, workshop id and rating. which i would like to populate.

My problem is that i am unsure how to populate the values into the table.

  - it is not known how many workshops the student attended, i.e one student may only enter one out of the four available dropdown boxes where another may enter values for all four.

  - What would be the best way to enter the values without entering records.

 

 

Input form example
        <tr>
    	<td align="right">
<? $res=mysql_query("select workshop_id, workshop from tbl_workshop");

	if(mysql_num_rows($res)==0)
		{
		echo "No Data";
             } else {
		echo '<select name="q3a">';
		echo '<option value = "-1">Select:</option>';
		while($row=mysql_fetch_assoc($res))
		{
		echo '<option value="' . $row['workshop_id'] . '">' . $row['workshop'] . '</option>';
		}
	echo '</select>';
	};
        	?>
        </td>
        <td align="center">
                         <Input type = "Radio" Name = "q3a1" value = "6"></td>
	<td align="center"><Input type = "Radio" Name = "q3a1" value = "7"></td>
	<td align="center"><Input type = "Radio" Name = "q3a1" value = "8"></td>
        </td>
    </tr>

repeated four times "3b, 3c, ..."
---------------------------------------------------------
process form code so far

$stud = ($_POST['stud_id']);
$workshop = ($_POST['q3a']);
$rating = ($_POST['q3a1']);

// insert data into table
$addy9feedback = "INSERT INTO tbl_y10 (stud_id, workshop, rating)
    		       VALUES ('$stud', '$workshop', '$rating')";

$result = mysql_query($addy9feedback) or die(mysql_error());

how would i then add in q3b, q3c, ...??

 

Thanks for any suggestions
