					 <td><select class="formfield" name="subject" onChange="displaydesc(document.form1.subject, thetext1, 'textcontainer1')">
<?
$options = array('Valitse aihe',
				 'Virhe sivustolla',
				 'Tutoriaaleista',
				 'Viikon sivusto',
				 'Viikon kuva',
				 'Muu');
foreach($options as $key=>$value){
	echo '<option value="'.$value.'" '.($key == $_GET['selected_id'] ? 'selected="selected" : '').'>'.$value."</option>\n";
}
?>
						  </select>
					  </td>

That is one way you could do it. But you should get the general idea.

hmm.. looks great but i get this

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING

Tried to find some " or ' missing or something but didn't found... is there?


Thanks..

Ya... thats what you get when you try to code without dreamweavers fancy color coding...

echo '<option value="'.$value.'" '.($key == $_GET['selected_id'] ? 'selected="selected"' : '').'>'.$value."</option>\n";

Missed a quote in that section, after the "selected" part. You can copy what's above and just replace the line that looks similar to it.

Yes, that's it!

Thanks you rc69 very much for helping me!! Respect..
