To achive this you need to change 'item type' inside the form as follows:

<?php
// Make a MySQL Connection
mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "") or die(mysql_error());
mysql_select_db("pinjaman") or die(mysql_error());

// prepare a qurey
$query = "SELECT  item FROM tablename"; // here you need to change the 'tablename' as per your table name.

// Get the data from database in a data set
$dataset = mysql_query($query);

if (mysql_num_rows($dataset) > 0) {
    ?>
    <label for="items">Items</label>
    <select name="Item">
        <?php
            while($row = mysql_fetch_object($dataset)) {
                echo "<option value=$row->item>$row->item</option>";
            }
        ?>
    </select>

<?php
}
?>
