You need to add name of your dropdown.

<select name="mysize" id="sizeoption">
<option value="Small">Small</option>
<option value="Medium">Medium</option>
<option value="Large">Large</option>
</select>

<?php 
$a = $_REQUEST['mysize'];
echo $a;
?>

Thanks,

Try this

<?php $a = $_POST['sizeoption']; ?>
<table class="tablepostion">
  <tr>
      <td>
          <select id="sizeoption">
          <option <?php echo ($a ==1)?'selected="selected"' : '' ?>  value="1">Small</option>
          <option <?php echo ($a ==2)?'selected="selected"' : '' ?> value="2">Medium</option>
          <option <?php echo ($a ==3)?'selected="selected"' : '' ?> value="3">Large</option>
          </select>
      </td>
 </tr>
</table>
