A select box also called drop down box provides an option to list down various options in the form of drop down list. You can also preselect a value in dropdown list of items in HTML forms. For that, add selected in the <option> tag for the value you want to preselect.
In the same or in another spreadsheet, select a cell or several cells in which you want your primary drop-down list to appear. Go to the Data tab, click Data Validation and set up a drop-down list based on a named range in the usual way by selecting List under Allow and entering the range name in the Source box.
Select the cell where you want the Dependent/Conditional Drop Down list (E3 in this example). Go to Data –> Data Validation. In the Data Validation dialog box, within the setting tab, make sure List in selected. In the Source field, enter the formula =INDIRECT(D3).
Use selected attribute.
<select name="status" id="status">
<option value="open" <?php if($status=="open") { echo "selected"; } ?> >Open</option>
<option value="done" <?php if($status=="done") { echo "selected"; } ?> >Done</option>
<option value="pending" <?php if($status=="pending") { echo "selected"; } ?> >Pending</option>
<option value="working" <?php if($status=="working") { echo "selected"; } ?> >Working</option>
</select>
