[PHP] editing field value using selectbox with options

[Denis L. Menezes]

Hello friends.

In an edit form, I need the following select box. 

<select name="MemPicSalutation" id="MemPicSalutation">
          <option value="Mr.">Mr.</option>
          <option value="Ms.">Ms.</option>
          <option value="Mrs.">Mrs.</option>
          <option value="Dr.">Dr.</option>
          <option value="Capt.">Capt.</option>
        </select>

My problem is : since I am getting the selected value from the database and showing it 
(for editing the option value and later updating), I do not know how to show the 
selected value(value of the option from the existing field value in the database) in 
the edit form(when opening the edit form) along with the other option values.

Can someone help? I am using PHP and $row.

Thanks
