What could be causing only 30 characters to be displayed in a dropdown menu even though the database values are longer, and how can this be rectified?
The issue could be due to a limitation set on the dropdown menu's width or max length. To rectify this, you can increase the width of the dropdown menu or adjust the max length setting to display more characters.
<select name="dropdown" style="width: 200px;">
<?php
// Fetch data from database
$data = fetchDataFromDatabase();
// Loop through data and display in dropdown
foreach ($data as $value) {
echo "<option value='" . $value . "'>" . $value . "</option>";
}
?>
</select>
