Change "SELECTED" dynamically

1

Hi!

I want to set the initial value in a ordinary drop down menu dynamically, depending on the value from a recordset.

for example, if I have a menu as such:

<select>
  <option>option 1</option>
  <option>option 2</option>
  <option>option 3</option>
</select>

and want the selected option when page load to correspond with the following:

<?php echo $row_Recordset['option']; ?>

how would I go about to do that?
