I believe this will get everything you'll need for your database (value selected, cell and row it was selected in)... something like:

JSFiddle

$("td select").on("change", function() {
    var value = this.value;
    var $cell = $(this).parent();
    var $row = $cell.parent();
    alert("Selected ["+value+"] in cell ["+$cell.index()+"] of row ["+$row.index()+"]");
});
