How can the issue of the last entry in a SelectList being automatically selected be resolved when updating data in PHP?

Issue: The last entry in a SelectList being automatically selected when updating data in PHP can be resolved by setting the selected attribute of the option to "selected" only if the option value matches the value that needs to be selected.

&lt;select name=&quot;example_select&quot;&gt;
    &lt;option value=&quot;1&quot; &lt;?php echo ($value == 1) ? &#039;selected&#039; : &#039;&#039;; ?&gt;&gt;Option 1&lt;/option&gt;
    &lt;option value=&quot;2&quot; &lt;?php echo ($value == 2) ? &#039;selected&#039; : &#039;&#039;; ?&gt;&gt;Option 2&lt;/option&gt;
    &lt;option value=&quot;3&quot; &lt;?php echo ($value == 3) ? &#039;selected&#039; : &#039;&#039;; ?&gt;&gt;Option 3&lt;/option&gt;
&lt;/select&gt;
