What you need to do, within the loop that outputs the <option> elements,
is to check the value(s) in the row to see if this is the element that
should be currently displayed, and it so, you need to add the "selected"
tag to the <option> element, e.g.

<option id="$id" selected>$optiontext</option>

For all other options, omit the "selected".

Cheers
Tony
