Because you are using the $result variable many times with subsequent queries, you will need to preserve $result["PACKAGE_CATEGORY"] as a new variable, like this:
$selected=$result["PACKAGE_CATEGORY"];
You can write inline condition statements like this:
echo "<option name=\"WEBE\" value=\"{$row["PACKAGE_NAME"]}\"",($row[ "PACKAGE_NAME"]==$selected?" selected":""),">{$row["PACKAGE_NAME"]}</option>";
This means if the condition is true then selected will be echoed, if false an empty string will be echoed.
The same technique on multiple lines would look like this:
echo "<option name=\"WEBE\" value=\"{$row["PACKAGE_NAME"]}\"";
echo $row["PACKAGE_NAME"]==$selected?" selected":"";
echo ">{$row["PACKAGE_NAME"]}</option>";
If you don't want to use an inline condition here is the standard syntax:
echo "<option name=\"WEBE\" value=\"{$row["PACKAGE_NAME"]}\"";
if($row["PACKAGE_NAME"]==$selected){
echo " selected";
}
echo ">{$row["PACKAGE_NAME"]}</option>";
