I used following code for creating drop down. If you want to create wordpress post tag drop down for some setting or configuration use following simple code.

view source
print?
01<?php
02$taxonomies=get_taxonomies('','object');
03foreach($taxonomies as $tax){
04echo "<h2>$tax->name</h2>";
05$terms = get_terms( $tax->name, 'orderby=count&hide_empty=0' );
06foreach($terms as $term){
07print_a($term->name);
08}
09}
10?>

Above is raw code, which I modified little bit to create drop down list of wordpress post tags.
