By list, do you mean a form drop-down? Do you want the variable to be used on the same page as the admin php page or different page? – Kevin Z Mar 16 '14 at 07:39

You'll want to make that drop down a form so when you save those settings, it is written in a global variable. Then you can pull that variable on the post page. Check out this post for setting global variables: How to declare a global variable in php?
To set it, in the php file that you call from the form submission, pass a url parameter using GET (http://www.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.get.php) and then you can put it on the post page.
