Keep your dropdown as it is.

<select id="location" name="location">
.
.
.
.
</seelct>

Then add another one dropdown as hidden (display:none;) without any options. This dropdown will be filled with options when clicking submit button.

On submit button click action add below js code,

In js:

 $('#location option').clone().appendTo('#near_location');// copied all options
   var index = $('#location ').get(0).selectedIndex; // remove selected
   $('#near_location option:eq(' + index + ')').remove();
    return true;

Now you will get the selected option in $_POST["location"] and un-selected values in $_POST["near_loaction"].

You can save generated options on the server via session or database and load it after submit.
