The code below is part of a form that fulls data from a mysql database &amp;&nbsp;displays that information in a browser. As you can see in the code, it pulls the employee name. My question is, is there any way I can edit this line of code that will allow me to add a drop down box that shows the other employees but keep the employee it pulls from the mysql database default?<br />

PHP Code

PHP is a widely-used server-side scripting language especially suited for web development, powering tens of millions of sites from Facebook to personal WordPress blogs. PHP is often paired with the MySQL relational database, but includes support for most other mainstream databases. By utilizing different Server APIs, PHP can work on many different web servers as a server-side scripting language.

MySQL is an open source, relational database management system that runs as a server providing multi-user access to a number of databases. Acquired by Oracle in 2009, it is frequently used in combination with PHP installations, powering most of the WordPress installations.
