Show BD value in Dropdown Box

Question

I have in my database a value for user level and I would like to be able to modify it in the change. I need to load the level of the logged in user when opening the page:

<div class="form-group">
    <label>Nivel de Usuário</label>
    <select class="form-control" name="">
        <option value="2">Usuário Comum</option>
        <option value="1">Administrador</option>
    </select>
</div>

In my Session I already have the user ID and have already done the select, I just need to take this level (of the selected user), for example "1" and, when opening the page, show the option <option value="1">Administrador</option>.

The question of user validation for each area is quiet to do. My doubt at the moment is only this in relation to the Dropdown HTML with PHP.

From now on I thank everyone and all the answers!

Answer 1

You can check in the looping you do to add the options if the ID is equal to ID of the logged-in user level

$nivelUsuarioLogado = 2;

$niveis = array(
    1=>'Administrador',
    2=>'Usuário Comum'
);

echo '<div class="form-group">';
    echo '<label>Nivel de Usuário</label>';
    echo '<select class="form-control" name="">';
        foreach($niveis as $key => $value){
            $selected = ($nivelUsuarioLogado == $key) ? true : false;

            echo '<option value="'.$key.'" '.(($selected) ? 'selected="selected"' : '').'>';
                echo $value;
            echo '</option>';
        }
    echo '</select>';
echo '</div>';

Answer 2

Can simplify the check with the value that should have Selected with printf.

<select name="nivel">
   <?php
       foreach($niveis as $item){
          $select = $item['id'] == $nivel_session ? $select = 'selected = "selected"' : "";
          printf('<option value="%d">%s</option>'. $item['id'], $item['nivel_descricao']);
       }
   ?>
</select>

<div class="form-group">
    <label>Nivel de Usuário</label>
    <select class="form-control" disabled="true">
        <option value="2" <?php if ($$row_listaMe['nivel'] == 2){echo "selected";}; ?>>Usuário Comum</option>
        <option value="1" <?php if ($row_listaMe['nivel'] == 1){echo "selected";}; ?>>Administrador</option>
    </select>
</div>
