Answer 1

Simply you can store the first-page dropdown values in Session or Cookies. If you have less important things like country, cities, and address locations then you can simply use the Cookies to store the data.

Answer 2

You can use url parameter to pass the selected value from one page to another.

http://www.test.com/next_page.php?selected_value=12

Like above example you can pass the selected drop down value to another page in php.

You can use

$_GET['selected_value'] 

in next page to get selected value.

Answer 3

You have to get select value by doing onChange event via jquery.

After jquery, you need to pass that value to particular change event.

Lets say you have this select box

<select id="select1">
<option value"">Select</option>
<option value"1">A</option>
<option value"1">b</option>
<option value"1">C</option>
</select>

While if any value changes you need to navigate to that page taking that option value.

So this is how you can do it via jquery.

$("#select1").change(function(){
  //alert();
  var changedval = $(this).val();
  var url = "pagename/countryname="+changedval;
  window.location.href= url;
  /* $.ajax({
            url: url,
            type: 'GET',
            data: {'image_name': image_name, 'id' : id},
            success: function (data) {
                $("#profile_picture_display_outer").hide();
            },
            error: function (data) {
            }
        });  */
}); 

You can even get values via ajax as well or you can directly redirect to that particular url via appending current selected value.

Additional if you are using Codeigniter 3 then this is how you can mention routes in routes.php

$route['pagename/(:any)'] = 'Controller/methodname/$1';
