In PODS template, How to compare Fields

    Hi,
    I have a pods template to generate a select list of players for my current team. This template is being used on a player page. It shows a dropdown select of all of the team’s players. I have it working but I’d like to have it select the current player being viewed. So I think I need to compare the current page permalink to the looped players permalink and set selected for the one that matches. I don’t know the syntax to get the current page permalink and do the comparison within the [each] loop. Is this possible? Is php available in the pods template? Below is my code:

    <a href="{@current_team.permalink}">{@current_team} {@current_team.age_bracket}</a>
<select id="player_sel_id" name="player" class="players-list">
[each current_team]
[each players]
	<option name="{@post_slug}" value="{@permalink,esc_url}" />{@post_title}</option>
[/each]
[/each]

</select> 
<script>
document.getElementById("player_sel_id").addEventListener("change", function (event) {
  location.href = event.target.value;
});
</script>

    It occurred to me to handle it in the script rather than the html. Working code now is:

    <a href="{@current_team.permalink}">{@current_team} {@current_team.age_bracket}</a>
<select id="player_sel_id" name="player" class="players-list">
[each current_team]
[each players]
	<option name="{@post_slug}" value="{@permalink,esc_url}" />{@post_title}</option>
[/each]
[/each]

</select> 
<script>
document.getElementById("player_sel_id").addEventListener("change", function (event) {
  location.href = event.target.value;
});
window.addEventListener('load', function () {
	document.getElementById("player_sel_id").value=window.location.protocol +
      "//" +
      window.location.host +
      window.location.pathname;
});
</script>
