The way I do it requires some setup, but you only do it once,
First you create an array of states and codes
e.g.
$states= array("AL"=>"Alabama","TX"=>"Texas","VA", "Virginia",...);
then use PHP to create your select box
Untested.
<select name='state'>
<?php
foreach($states as $key=>$value){
if(isset($_POST[$key]) &&$_POST[$key]==$value){
$selected="selected";
}
else{
$selected="";
}
echo"<option value='$key' $selected >$value</option>\n";
}
?>
</select>
