That gives me:
<select name="Country" id="Country" tabindex="5">
<option value="Botswana" <?php if (!(strcmp("Botswana", $row_WADAitineraries['Country']))) {echo "selected=\"selected\"";} ?>>Botswana</option>
<option value="Kenya" <?php if (!(strcmp("Kenya", $row_WADAitineraries['Country']))) {echo "selected=\"selected\"";} ?>>Kenya</option>
<option value="Mozambique" <?php if (!(strcmp("Mozambique", $row_WADAitineraries['Country']))) {echo "selected=\"selected\"";} ?>>Mozambique</option>
<option value="Namibia" <?php if (!(strcmp("Namibia", $row_WADAitineraries['Country']))) {echo "selected=\"selected\"";} ?>>Namibia</option>
<option value="South Africa" <?php if (!(strcmp("South Africa", $row_WADAitineraries['Country']))) {echo "selected=\"selected\"";} ?>>South Africa</option>
<option value="Tanzania" <?php if (!(strcmp("Tanzania", $row_WADAitineraries['Country']))) {echo "selected=\"selected\"";} ?>>Tanzania</option>
<option value="Uganda" <?php if (!(strcmp("Uganda", $row_WADAitineraries['Country']))) {echo "selected=\"selected\"";} ?>>Uganda</option>
<option value="Zambia" <?php if (!(strcmp("Zambia", $row_WADAitineraries['Country']))) {echo "selected=\"selected\"";} ?>>Zambia</option>
<option value="Zimbabwe" <?php if (!(strcmp("Zimbabwe", $row_WADAitineraries['Country']))) {echo "selected=\"selected\"";} ?>>Zimbabwe</option>
</select>
But its when I go to the update page, it defaults to the first on the list, ie Botswana, rather than the current value for the record.
