Save selected cell after sending

Question

On my site, a user is allowed to filter games by genre. When a user selects a genre from the selection window and sends requests, the page uses GET to find out what a filter is. Now the filter works fine, the problem is that the selection block is selected by default (which says "everything.")

I want that after the user has sent his filter request, the selection window will save this choice after the page is reloaded.

There is only one way I could come up with, but that would require adding all the options in PHP. Are there any simpler ways to do this using PHP or jQuery?

} ?>
</select>

you can do this without a loop, just change the value of 6 to whatever value you want when rendering the page

$ ("# $ optionId [value = 6]"). attr ('selected', 'selected');
