drop-down menus

[Anon]

I am using PERL scripts and HTML and MySQL to generate web pages. I am wondering how I can populate a drop-down menu dynamically by querying a database. I don't know if I can do this directly in the HTML or if I need a separate PERL script or javascript.

Thanks.

connect to the database, do a select on it, and the use a while loop to loop through all the records and output them in the select tag
