drop down list not populating

Hi I've got the code for a drop down list and the drop down box displays--but with no info in it. The underlying table is populated so I could use some advice on what might be wrong from here.... <SELECT> <? include("includes/db.php"); MYSQL_CONNECT(HOST,USER,PASS) OR DIE("Unable to connect to database"); @mysql_select_db(DB) or die( "Unable to select database"); $query=("select * from community order by community"); $result=mysql_query($query) or die ("Unable to Make the Query:" . mysql_error() ); while($row=mysql_fetch_array($result)){ echo "<OPTION VALUE=".$row['community']."</OPTION>"; } ?> </SELECT> Any ideas? Thanks Dan
