Works for me

http://www.ckdog.co.uk/test/urlselect.php?listid=3
http://www.ckdog.co.uk/test/urlselect.php?listid=2

used an array to simulate your database call

$items=array(1=>"Item1",2=>"Item2",3=>"Item3",4=>"Item4");

echo "<select name=listid' class='gradientform'>\n";
foreach($items as $itemid=>$item){
$selected=(isset($_GET['listid']) &&$_GET['listid']==$itemid)?"
selected":"";
echo "<option value='$itemid'$selected>$item</option>\n";
}
echo "</select>\n";
