Clojure - Hiccup Dropdown menu

I have a Clojure table in Hiccup that is populated from a database. In one column I have status which is set from the database.

What I want to do is be able to click on this value, and have a dropdown menu appear where you can pick a new status from the dropdown menu.

I am confused on how to do this. I have tried using a form with a placeholder where the value comes from the database but when I click on the status in the browser, I have to type instead of having a dropdown. How do I get the dropdown?

(defn row-data [data]
  (for [x data]
    (let [[entity-id id date text status] job]
      (hiccup/html
        [:tr
         [:td date]
         [:td id]
         [:td text]
         [:form {:method :post}
          [:td 
           [:input {:type :text :placeholder status}]]]
         ]))))

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

If I understood your task, you don't need to use [:input] with {:type :text}, if you don't want to type into field. Try using (drop-down attr-map? name options) instead.

Also you can try to make your form look like this:

[:form {:action "/handler_name"}
 [:td
   [:select {:name (str "update_status_" id)}
    [:option {:value "1"} "1"]
    [:option {:value "2"} "2"]
    [:option {:value "3"} "3"]
    [:option {:value "4"} "4"]]
   [:input {:type "submit"} "Update"]]]
