回答1:

foreach ($pcitylist as $key => $pcitylist1)
{
      echo '<optgroup label="'.$key.'">';
      foreach ($pcitylist1 as $finalCity) {
          echo '<option value="' . $finalCity . '"' . (isset($_POST['pcity']) && $_POST['pcity'] == $finalCity ? ' selected' : '') . '>' . $finalCity . '</option>';
      }   
      echo '</optgroup>';
}

The $key holds the optgroup label. This will work with your array.

It is an multidimensional array... use one more for loop inside ur for loop and u will get the ouput..

Try the following..

foreach ($pcitylist as $key => $pcitylist1)
{ 
      foreach ($pcitylist1 as $finalCity) {
          echo '<option value="' . $finalCity . '"' . (isset($_POST['pcity']) && $_POST['pcity'] == $finalCity ? ' selected' : '') . '>'.$key . $finalCity . '</option>';
      }    
}
