			<option value="select">Select the type...</option>
			<option value="MPEG-2 Video" id="1">MPEG-2 Video</option>
			<option value="MPEG1" id="2">MPEG1</option>
			<option value="H.264 Video id="3"">H.264 Video</option>
		</select>

and my function for selection is

function videotype(value)
{

frm=document.aqueryform
videotypeid=frm.videotype.options[frm.videotype.selectedIndex].id

}

is it correct?plz help.

No it does not look correct. First of all your function videotype is not actually being called anywhere..you are calling a function named setstring(value).

Secondly, is there some reason why you dont want to pass the value directly without calling a javascript function? If not then leave out the onChange function call and submit the form normally....if youre still confused about that...you need to read up a little bit on how to pass data with PHP...lots of good info out there.
