checkboxes and selection lists

Hi, as a beginner I find the way you declare variables through HTML-forms quite straightforward. But the reverse, to put the same variables back into a form field is not so obvious for selection lists and checkboxes. Would for instance this be the best way: <SELECT CLASS="select" NAME="qual"> <OPTION VALUE="A" <?=if($qual=='A'){return 'SELECTED'}?>>A</OPTION> <OPTION VALUE="B" <?=if($qual=='B'){return 'SELECTED'}?>>B</OPTION> <OPTION VALUE="C" <?=if($qual=='C'){return 'SELECTED'}?>>C</OPTION> </SELECT> or would there be something more elegant?
