Answer 1

you can't do this in PHP without refreshing the page. otherwise, you can use JavaScript to detect when the radio buttons are clicked, and then change the drop down appropriately.

Answer 2

I am struggling to understand your question, but are you looking to do something like this? (I haven't tested this code yet)

<td width="60%">Languange<br />
    <select name="lang_">
    <?php
        $languages = array(
            'en'    =>   'English',
            'de'    =>   'German',
            'fr'    =>   'French',
        );

        foreach ($languages as $abrv => $language) {
            printf(
                '<option %s value="%s">%s</option>',
                $lang == $language ? 'selected' : '',
                htmlentities($abrv),
                htmlentities($language)
            );
        }
    ?>
    </select>
</td>
