Dropdown Menu Please help

Thanks to user @wdhppr I was able get my Manufacturers list to appear on my page using PHP. However, his explanation fell short on how to populate the dropdown on a page.

I customized his code outlined at:
https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/request-drop-down-select-form-field/

to this:

<?php
echo ‘<h2>Manufacturer: ‘;
$dept=$_POST[‘Manufacturer’];
echo $dept;
echo ‘</h2>’;
echo do_shortcode( “[abase table=’manufacturers’ columns=’Manufacturer Name^manufacturer_name’ where=’manufacturer_name LIKE \”%$dept%\”‘ order=’manufacturer_name’ limit=300]”);
?>

This manages to generate a table on my page by inserting a php snippet on the page, but how do I populate a dropdown with the table fields as options on my page?

Any help is appreciated, I’ll buy you a beer through PayPal if you can help. ??
