On my form I have several drop down menus.  They all work and display the
corrent values.  However, I would like the initial display of the form to
show each dropdown as blank.


$q_status = "SELECT * FROM status_codes ORDER BY status_description";
$r_status = mssql_query($q_status) or die(mssql_error());
 while ($rec_status = mssql_fetch_assoc($r_status)) $status[] =
$rec_status;

foreach ($status as $s)
 {
   if ($s['status_code'] == $_POST['status'])
     echo "<OPTION value=\"{$s['status_code']}\"
SELECTED>{$s['status_description']}</OPTION>\n";
   else
     echo "<OPTION
value=\"{$s['status_code']}\">{$s['status_description']}</OPTION>\n";
 }

Any suggestions on how to make my initial display of the field blank without
having to add a blank row to my table?
