Drop Down Menu Using DB Records

[refiking]

I am trying to place all the items from the sql query in a drop down menu.  What is the correct way to code this? 

 

Here is what I have:

 

$league = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM dlg WHERE lid = '$lid'")or die(mysql_error());
while ($row3 = mysql_fetch_array($league)){
$dlg = $row3['lname'];
?>
<form action="index.php" method="post">
<select name="lid">
<option value="<?echo $lid.'>'.$dlg.'"';?></option>
</select>
<input type="Submit" value="Select League">
</form>

<form action="index.php" method="post">
<select name="lid">
<?php
if ($league = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM dlg WHERE lid = '$lid'")) {
  if (mysql_num_rows($legue)) {
    while ($row3 = mysql_fetch_array($league)){
      $dlg = $row3['lname'];
      echo "  <option value=\"$lid\">$dlg</option>";
    }
  }
}
?>
</select>
<input type="Submit" value="Select League">
</form>

It doesn't show the options in the drop down menu.  I put a line in to echo $lid and $dlg and the values returned the records from the DB.  So, I know the variables work.  Is there something I missed in the code?
