foreach   array as  value   gt   name         echo   lt option value      htmlentities  value              GET  sel        value      selected  selected        gt     htmlentities  name      lt  option gt        This is fairly neat  and  I think  self-explanatory

Just use the array of options  to see  which option is currently selected    options   array   one    two    three       output       for   i 0   i lt count  options    i          output      lt option                       GET  sel       options  i     selected  selected              gt                    options  i                    lt  option gt        Sidenote  I would define a value to be some kind of id for each element  else you may run into problems  when two options have the same string representation
