Displaying vars in list box

[jasonyoung]

On the initial form I have drop-down fields to ensure consistent var entries, but I can't make them appear after querying the DB. Normally I would just echo the var with

<?php echo $varName; ?>

but how do I do it for a list box. Here's what I have to work with.

<select name="select" class="style7">
        <option selected>??</option>
        <option>EVMC Linux</option>
        <option>EVMC OS/2</option>
        <option>OS/2</option>
        <option>NT4</option>
        <option>2000</option>
        <option>EM Base I</option>
        <option>EM Base II</option>
      </select>

Thanks!!

<select name="example">
<option selected="selected" value="">[choose one]</option>
<?php
// assume $sql retrieve list of values for select box:
$result = mysql_query($sql) or die("Query failed: $sql - " . mysql_error());
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
   echo "<option>{$row[0]}</option>\n";
}
?>
</select>
