Dynamic LOV/Combo Box

Question

I need to put an LOV/Combo Box on a form where they can select a date from a list of values. We have reports that our field reps have to submit for the previous friday. I have code to create a combo box. How can I add this to a form or create a LOV with this function:
DECLARE
     n_NumofDays NUMBER;
     testdate VARCHAR2(50);
     selectedyear VARCHAR2(50);
     firstdayofyear VARCHAR2(11);
     firstfridayofyear VARCHAR2(11);
     upcomingfriday VARCHAR2(11);
     currentdate DATE;
     thisyear VARCHAR2(50);
     selected VARCHAR2(8);
BEGIN
     selectedyear := TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'YYYY');
firstdayofyear := '01-JAN-' || selectedyear;
firstfridayofyear := NEXT_DAY(firstdayofyear, 'FRIDAY');
upcomingfriday := NEXT_DAY(SYSDATE, 'FRIDAY');
     htp.p('<select name="weekenddate">');
     htp.p('<option selected value="'|| firstfridayofyear || '">Friday '|| firstfridayofyear || '</option>');
          currentdate := firstfridayofyear;
          thisyear := selectedyear;
          x :=0;
     WHILE SelectedYear = ThisYear LOOP
     IF currentdate = upcomingfriday THEN
          selected := 'selected';
     ELSE
          selected :='';
     END IF;
     htp.p('<option '|| selected || ' value="'|| currentdate || '">Friday '|| currentdate || '</option>');
          currentdate := NEXT_DAY(currentdate, 'FRIDAY');
          thisyear := TO_CHAR(currentdate,'YYYY');
     END LOOP;
     htp.br;
     htp.p('</select>');
htp.br;
htp.p(n_NumofDays);
END;
Look forward to your answer.

Rebecca:
This is the standard call for a Portal-built form:
PORTAL.wwa_app_module.link (
p_arg_names => PORTAL.wwv_standard_util.string_to_table2('_moduleid:loc_code'),
p_arg_values => PORTAL.wwv_standard_util.string_to_table2('2728668008:BHM'));
The 1st parm is required, it id's the form to call; the 2nd parm, LOC_CODE, I'm having to hard-code. It relates to the specific page from where this form is called; therefore, I've several places throughout the site where I call this form and the LOC_CODE value is different. I've a field on on this form that gets populated with this value when the form comes-up, but I have it hidden. I can also use this value to drive the contents of a combo-box on the form. That's what I really needed to do; restrict the selection there based on where the form was being called from.
Hope that helps...
