How to fetch/retrieve data from sql db directly in select/option by using php

[mkfellah]

Hi.
I entred data in a db sql by using a "insert php file". A data were entered by using simple edit box, and select/option boxes. I use 2 select/option boxes :

1. first one : data list come from data table
2. second one : data are choice like yes/no or female/male

All things is OK for the input boxes. But when i want to retrieve/update data, i don't know how to do for retreiving the data in the two select/option boxes by using a "fetch/update php file".

Can you help me. Thanks
