Posting the selected html option attribute via php

Posting the selected html option attribute via php..Here is my html code and I'm trying to select one option from the event-drop down menu, but really finding it hard to configure with php variable $event. Any help will be much appreciated.

HTML Code:

    <div>
    <h4>Event</h4>
    <p class="cd-select icon">
    <select class="budget">
    <option value="0">Select Occasion</option>
    <option value="1">alpha</option>
    <option value ="2">Bravo</option>
    <option value="3">Charlie</option>
    <option value="4">Delta</option>
    </select>
    </p>
    </div>

PHP version 

    $event = $_POST['selected'];

In PHP form fields are posted with their name. In your case you'd have to add the name attribute to the select.

<select class="budget" name="selected">
<option value="0">Select Occasion</option>
<option value="1">alpha</option>
<option value ="2">Bravo</option>
<option value="3">Charlie</option>
<option value="4">Delta</option>
</select>
