When you submit the form, the value of the selectlist is passed to the next page, you do not have to do anything for this, that's how forms work.

Then you reference your formfields on the next page using FORM.NAME

NAME = the name of the form element.

or URL.NAME for variables posted using the GET method or sent on a link.
