You mean you want to grab the row from the database that corresponds to the option they selected? If so, you can do something like this:

 

$id = $_POST['name']; //whatever the name of your combobox in the form is.
$result = mysql_query('SELECT * FROM `table` WHERE id="' . $id . '"');
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
