Combo Box values

[jacobelias]

I have values in a combo box where datas are coming
loaded dynamically. When an user selects a particular value and press search, even after refreshing the page, I want to keep the value same as the user selects. For example suppose if I selects
value PHP from combo box, after submitting the combo box should
value highlighted must be PHP. IS there any way I can do this?

Thanks

Principle:

...
echo '<option value=' . $res['id'];
if ( $list == $res['id'] ) {
echo ' selected';
}; # if
echo '>' . $res['name'];
...

I changed my code accordingly, however it's showing only the the first letter of values. Waht's wrong with this?

pasted below is the code.

while(list($tick) = mysql_fetch_row($res_dt)) {
echo '<option value=' . $tick['id'];
if ( $list == $tick['id'] ) {
echo ' selected';
}; # if
echo '>' . $tick['name'];

}

Thanks

It's not working with that.
