I'd do something similar to three for something like states.  However, 
also for something like states I'd get all the states into an array 
somewhow, whether it be by manually creating it, or generating it with 
your sql call.

Once you have it in an array you can do all sorts of things like make a 
drop list, easily mark one option item "selected", or whatever.
