The CGI (or other parsing sub) reads the data selected from the drop
down, which is in the "value" part of each <option> tag.
<select name="dropdown">
<option value="1">option 1</option>
<option value="2">option 2</option>
<option value="3">option 3</option>
</select>
then in your param{'dropdown'}you should have 1, 2 or 3 depending on the
option that he choose.
What are you using to parse the data? CGI.pm ? That is probably causing
the problem because your html seems right
