the value in the select option is 1, if you want to get a different value you can do so programmatically, or by changing the value in the field. changing the value is an obvious method so I won't show it.
giving the select a name so it is accessible
programmatically
<?php if($_POST['name']=="1") {
echo "1 one";
//or
$variable="1 one";
//or
$name="1";
$name2=="one";}
?>

Have an array with indexes the values and elements the words you want to represent the values:
$numbers_array = array('1' => 'one', '2' => 'two', '3' => 'three');
// wrap everything within form tags
echo '<form action="#" method="post">';
// use PHP to construct the select element
echo '<select name="numbers">';
foreach($numbers_array as $value => $text) {
echo " <option value='$value'>$text</option>"
}
echo "</select>";
// submit button
echo "<input name="submit" value="Submit" />";
echo "</form>";
// check if submit button was pressed
if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {
$chosen_value = $_POST['numbers'];
// display chosen value and text
echo $chosen_value . ' - ' . $numbers_array[$chosen_value];
}

The values are already in an array $countryName so just use them.
Maybe you post the whole code so I can get the picture.

hi broj1 i want to insert countryname in DB when submit the form..
and ya i cant change option value bcoz it affects on my ajax code..so plz tell me how to get country name from dropdown list

You need to tell me what are the fields $countryName[$i][0] and $countryName[$i][1] in the tabče county (the first two fields).

Sorry, disregard my last post, I see you already explained that.
Please post the addDetails.php page code too since everything is happening there.
broj1 356 Humble servant Featured Poster
Just my guess since I havent seen the code of the addDetails.php page: On addDetails.php you will get the ID of the country and this is the information you want to store so you do not need a country name at all (or do you?). In case you really need it you can put it in a hidden field on the previous page and it will be sent over to addDetails.php in the $_POST array. Hope this helps.
