	or die(mysql_error());

	  while($tier = mysql_fetch_array( $result )) 
  
		{
		   echo '<option value="'.$tier['category_code'].'">'.$tier['category_title'].'</option>';

}

//**************************************

function category_code($drop_var)
{  

	$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM category_item WHERE category_code='$drop_var'") or die(mysql_error());
	
	echo '<select name="item_name" id="item_name">';

		   while($drop_2 = mysql_fetch_array( $result )) 
			{
			  echo '<option value="'.$drop_2['item_code'].'">'.$drop_2['category_item'].'</option>';
			}
	
	echo '</select>'; 
	
	echo '<input type="text" name="item_name" value="'.$drop_2['category_item'].'" readonly="readonly">';
}
?>

With jQuery you can use something like this:

$('#category_code option:selected').text()
