something like....

function init_auth_list()
 {
         print "<select name=author> <option value=\"\">select the name of
the author</option\>";
         $query="select name from author order by name";
         $result=pg_exec($GLOBALS["db"],$query);
         $numrows=pg_numrows($result);
         $i=0;
         while($i<$numrows)
         {
         $row=pg_fetch_row($result,$i);
         print "option name=\"".$row[0]."\">$row[0]</option>";
         $i++;
         }
         print "</select>";
 }
