Answer 1

Maybe your you have something that looks like this

Arts & Crafts
Baby

you should have a before your options value?
If you do do the same thing you do to post your other values, just post the select name or the value that is inside this , whatever you have inside the "" marks. so just post it like this, $_POST['select'], so just add another $_POST to your code, just with the value of whatever your select name is. I'm new to this too, so I hope this helps. let me know, [e-mail]

Answer 2

If you want to insert the current selected value to database, you have to use AJAX.
Just add onChange event in tag like this



On in insertDB (a javascript function), you will have to implement ajax and post this data to a server side php script so that it can be inserted to database.

It this is not what u r asking, then please come up with more details.
