I have something like this in my view:
<form .....>
<select>
<option value="five">5</option>
<option value="ten">10</option>
<option value="fifteen">15</option>
</select>
</form>
As I do in the controller to take the values of the options? PD: It is a manual select , do not use types that actually genre with jquery .
You need to give your select a name, so it will be submitted in the form.
<select name="whatever">
Then in PHP, it will be in
$_POST['whatever'];
