in PHPRunner?
---
PHPRunner v1.1
---
The current version of PHPRunner has by design no possibility
to generate a combobox.
===
What you possibly could do as a workaround is:
---
Method: 1
Add 2 fields to your table.
One for a 'textfield' input,
the other for a 'lookup wizard' input
(containing your list)
---
Disadvantage:
You have now 2 fields instead of
the usual 1 field.
===
Method: 2
1. put that values (e.g. 'all countries of the world', 
like 'Russia', 'USA, 'France', 'Germany') in a
    lookup table (so create a table in MySql containing that values)
2. Include that table (by enabling the [V] checkbox) in the tables in 
the step screen 'Data sourcetable'
3. Then you get (also) an entry for that table on your web page
4. You can then add values via clicking on the link of that table,
   1. -Click on 'Add new' to add new list values
   2. -Fill in the new data
   3. -Click button 'Save'
