I have error_reporting set to E_ALL and display_errors is set to On.
And no errors are displayed
My code run through as it should...passes my include statement...displays
part of the form, but when it gets to a dropdown box that is populated by
the database (Which the connection is set in the include) it returns an
empty drop down and none of the rest of my form is displayed.

Set your error_reporting to E_ALL.
and set display_errors to On
Then you should be able to see all the errors.
Because, without the error messages, we are not going to be able to help
you.
Might I recommend to use include_once instead. This way, it will only
create one connection
