Putting ResultSet data into select boxes

Question

I am running a query, and returning the data to a JSP which in turn, places the query data into 3 different select boxes. Each of these three select boxes will contain a different number of values. The query is as follows:
partQuestionList="SELECT DISTINCT carMake, carModel, partTypeName FROM PARTTYPE, CARSPARTAVAIL";
Hence, I have three select boxes to display the three types of data. I assume I will need to use a loop of some kind. What is the best way to accomplish this without having code all over the place? Also, what is the best way to make these distinct? Thanks.

Answer 1

By the way..here is the code I have so far...
while(rs.next()){
     carMake.add(rs.getString("carMake"));
     carModel.add(rs.getString("carModel"));
     //carYear.add(rs.getInt("carYear"));
     partTypeName.add(rs.getString("partTypeName"));
     <SELECT name="Model">
          <% for (int x = 0; x<carModel.size(); x++) { %>
          <OPTION><%=carModel.get(x) %></OPTION>
               <% } %>
     </SELECT>
Which will obviously work, but doesnt get rid of the duplicates..
