Why are you giving us javascript if you're trying to do it in PHP? Where's your PHP code?

Just so you know, you can't really do this in PHP. But why would you want to? What's the point of passing the selected index to PHP when you can just pass the selected value?

in a combo box there is two thing
1. the value and
2. the text

<select id='dd'>
 <option value='1'>111</option>
 <option value='2'>222</option>
</select>
 

if you do
document.getElementById('dd').value
you would get either 1 or 2.

your form would send the value of selected item to server.
