    If I'm understanding you correctly, this should get you started:

<?php

$arr = array(
  'inventory_100' => 'apples',
  'inventory_101' => 'oranges',
  'inventory_102' => 'pears',
  'inventory_103' => 'bananas',
);

echo '<select id="inventory_items">'.PHP_EOL;

foreach ($arr as $k => $v) {
  echo '  <option value="'.$k.'">'.$v.'</option>'.PHP_EOL;
}

echo '</select>'.PHP_EOL;
?>

    You can copy and paste that code (though I just typed it in here,
it should work) and it should illustrate the point.
