If you give your select a name then when the user submits the form the selected value will be in the _POST array.

e.g. something like:
Code:
if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] === 'POST') {
   $inputA=$_POST['dir_name']
}
else { /* REQUEST */
?>
<form name="inputA">
 <p align="center">
  <select name="dir_name">
etc...

NAME
xcb_set_selection_owner - Sets the owner of a selection SYNOPSIS
#include <xcb/xproto.h> Request function xcb_void_cookie_t xcb_set_selection_owner(xcb_connection_t *conn, xcb_window_t owner, xcb_atom_t selection, xcb_timestamp_t time); REQUEST ARGUMENTS
conn The XCB connection to X11. owner The new owner of the selection. The special value XCB_NONE means that the selection will have no owner. selection The selection. time Timestamp to avoid race conditions when running X over the network. The selection will not be changed if time is earlier than the current last-change time of the selection or is later than the cur- rent X server time. Otherwise, the last-change time is set to the specified time. The special value XCB_CURRENT_TIME will be replaced with the current server time. DESCRIPTION
Makes window the owner of the selection selection and updates the last-change time of the specified selection. TODO: briefly explain what a selection is. RETURN VALUE
Returns an xcb_void_cookie_t. Errors (if any) have to be handled in the event loop. If you want to handle errors directly with xcb_request_check instead, use xcb_set_selection_owner_checked. See xcb-requests(3) for details. ERRORS
xcb_atom_error_t selection does not refer to a valid atom. SEE ALSO
