How to insert multiple values from form

Hi!

I want users of a web form to be able to type in multiple values into a 'child' mysql table for each entered value in a 'parent' table.

(For example, a number of lat-long positions for each research cruise. The cruise id is entered into a textbox, and underneath I'd like users to enter Lat+Long for each station that was visited during the cruise )

The values are not limited, and thus can't be selected from any listbox. The number of values to be typed in varies, also. Could I use a textarea, extract each row separately and then insert it into the mysql table?

Thanks in advance,
Maria
