HTML select Element

The HTML <select> element is usually applied in form creation when we desire a drop down selection list for users to choose a value from. The <option> element is placed inside of the <select> element to render the choices for the user to select a value from. When the form is submit you can use something like PHP to process the name attribute [ key->value ] set to access what the user chose for that form component, then email it or send to a database for storage.
