Couple things here..

1. Wrap the form elements in a form, else grabing T1 becomes very difficult
2. This DOES require Javascript to be ENABLED to work
3. The code:

<form>
<select width="100" size="1" name="Industrielijst" style="font-family:
Arial; font-size: 8pt"
onchange="this.form.T1.value=this.options[selectedIndex].value">
<option value="P1">Plants</option>
<option value="P2">Software</option>
<option value="P3">Hardware</option>
<option value="P4">System</option>
<option value="P5">Screens</option>
</select>
<input type="text" name="T1" size="40">
</form>

Take care,
