Re: Month

Just when I think I'm getting the hang of PHP, I get confused beyond belief :| Is this working for you guys? When I test my page only 1/2 of the months show up now. <scratching head> <select name="month"> <?PHP

    for ($m=1;$m<=12;$m++) {
    $months=date('M', mktime(0, 0, 0, $m, 1));
    echo "<option value=\"".sprintf("%02d", $m).\">$months</option>";
    }

?> </select> On 2/19/07, Brad Fuller <bfuller@cpacampaigns.com> wrote:

</select> I'm pretty sure you need to use double quotes on the format string. echo "<option value=\"".sprintf("%02s", $m)."\">$months</option>"; -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
