$noplayers (=number from database)
echo "<select name=\"no_players\">";
for ($i = 1; $i <21; ++$i)
{
echo ("<option value=$i>$i</option> \n");
}
echo "</select>";

oops.

echo "<select name=\"no_players\">";
for ($i = 1; $i <21; ++$i)
{
echo "<option value=$i";
if ($i == $noplayers) echo " SELECTED";
echo ">$i</option> \n";
}
echo "</select>";
