I need a PHP code to add a drop down list for every row I retrieve from Database. Then read the user's choice.

So, basically I have a database table with 5 fields. I need to retrieve and display those 5 fields, and additional I have a 6th column named 'action' in Front End where the user has 'confirm/reject' drop down list for every row retrieved from Database Table. After user selects the choice in DropDown list, the value is read and sent to another Database Table. Local Database.

Amir Ahmad Dude, I think you got me wrong. I don't want to convert the retrieved data into DropDown list. Retrieved data should be displayed as they are, but for every row retrieved there should be another extra column of drop down list with options 'Approve/Reject'. Hope Everyone who check this understands.
