Not much choice then - you have to present them an interface to all of
the products for them to select from. Alphabetical sorting perhaps,
with a small search field so they can search on product title perhaps,
or filter out specific categories.
You can't have them in a drop-down (well, technically you could, but
this isn't a PHP issue anymore, it's a user-interface one).
