the jquery is client side and php is server side, you most post the data to the php, use the jquery post function, learn here: http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.post

yeah i know but it doesn't mean that you can not perform jquery tagging in simple form post

also you can define your post data variable values with the any attributes of any elements

UL is not a "form input element". Use elements that require inputs from user such as INPUT,SELECT,TEXTAREA, etc. to submit values using traditional form submit.
