It should be something like:

htp.tablerowopen;
htp.TABLEDATAOPEN;
htp.formselectopen('aname');

for m in (select distinct (cMakNam) as cMakNam from maker order by cMakNam) loop
htp.formselectoption (m.cMakNam);
end loop;

htp.formselectclose;
htp.TABLEDATACLOSE;;
htp.tablerowclose;

BUT since there is no htp.TABLEDATAOPEN and htp.TABLEDATACLOSE you have to change that to htp.print('<TD>') and hpt.print('</TD>').

This is one of the reasons why I do not use the HTP and the HTF packages. I have written my own HTP and HTF packages. I have implemented each tag as:

procedure/function tagTAGNAME(....) ....
procedure/function tagTAGNAMEOpen(....) ....
procedure/function tagTAGNAMEClose(....) ....

I hope this will help,

grtnx,
Richard

Real programmers don't comment their code. It was hard to write, it should be hard to understand.
