The HTML <select> tag is used
for defining a select list. The <select> tag is used with the <option> tag to produce a list of options that the user can choose from. The <optgroup> element can also be used for grouping those <option> items.
Example Code:
<select>
<option value ="new york">New York</option>
<option value ="london">London</option>
<option value ="sydney" selected>Sydney</option>
<option value ="auckland">Auckland</option>
</select>
