Are there any best practices for dynamically selecting options in HTML dropdown lists using PHP?

When dynamically selecting options in HTML dropdown lists using PHP, one common approach is to populate the dropdown list options by fetching data from a database or an API. This allows for the dropdown list options to be updated dynamically based on the data retrieved. 

<select name="dropdown">
    <?php
    // Fetch data from database or API
    $options = ["Option 1", "Option 2", "Option 3"];

    // Loop through the options and create dropdown list options
    foreach($options as $option) {
        echo "<option value='$option'>$option</option>";
    }
    ?>
</select>
