Alrighty, so I am attempting to put together a dropdown list that will display a user's pets that are "no" for use alternates and level 4...I'm having issues with it.

I am just getting a blank drop-down list. Right now I'm just trying to list all of the user's pets.

Here's the code I'm attempting....

PHP:
$stmt = $mysidia->db->select("owned_adoptables", array("name"), "owner = '{$mysidia->input->get("user")}'");
$name = $stmt->fetchColumn();
$formExample = new Form("exampleform", "page_to_send_to_here", "post");
$exampleDropdown = new DropdownList("solarList");
$exampleDropdown->add(new Option("{$name}", "{$name}"));
$formExample->add($exampleDropdown);
$formExample->add(new Button("Click Me", "submit", "submit"));
$document->add($formExample);

This is my first time trying to work with dropdown lists in Mysidia, so I am very lost. If anyone could help I'd really appreciate it.

You can narrow down which adoptables are available in the dropdown, in your case by level and alternates, with something like this:
PHP:
$stmt = $mysidia->db->select("owned_adoptables", array("name", "aid"), "owner = '{$mysidia->user->username}' AND level >= '4' AND usealternates = 'no'");
It would also select adoptables who have a level higher than 4, since it uses ">=", but you could change it to just "=" if you only wanted level 4 pets to appear.

Thank you!

But I am still not sure how to actually get it to show that data in the drop down as options :/

By this I mean I'm not sure what to put here;
PHP:
$exampleDropdown->add(new Option("pet name?", "aid?"));
