I'm passed the parsing errors. Semi colon was me trying to stop parsing errors. <?php while($row = mysql_fetch_array($inds, MYSQL_BOTH)) { echo '<option value="'.$row['CareerIDs'].'">'; if (!(strcmp($row_rsInd['CareerIDs'], "$Ind"))) {echo "SELECTED";} echo $row['CareerCategories'].'</option>'; I could not find a difference with '$Ind', or "$Ind", except I would think '$Ind' is correct, since " " would be a literal string.
