if i understand, you want PHP to do something when an option is selected in a single <SELECT>. if so...

 

add a Javascript onchange() handler to your <SELECT> that either submits the form or uses Ajax to update the page. here is an example that just submits the form:

 

<SELECT NAME='some_name' onchange="this.form.submit();'>
