RE: [PHP] Trouble creating a list on months

Oops! I forgot to include the parameter... function month_select($month) { echo "<select name=\"month\">\n"; $month_names = array(1 => "January", 2 => "February", 3 => "March", 4 => "April", 5 => "May", 6 => "June", 7 => "July", 8 => "August", 9 => "September", 10 => "October", 11 => "November", 12 => "December"); if(!isset($month)) $month = (int)strftime("%m"); for($num_months = 0; $num_months < 12; $num_months++) { echo "\t<option>" . $month_names[$month] . "</option>\n"; $month = ($month == 12? 1 : $month + 1); } echo "</select>\n"; } I didn't get a chance to test this, but you get the idea... Good luck. -----Original Message----- From: Mario A.

I'm hoping someone can help figure this out. I'm using a GNU licensed calendar but there is a bug in it's process for building a list of months. The list is supposed to build a list of months starting with the current month and adding 11 months to the list. In theory, If this is July the <select> should be as follows: <select> <option>July</option> <option>August</option> <option>September</option> <option>October</option> <option>November</option> <option>December</option> <option>January</option> <option>Februrary</option> <option>March</option> <option>April</option> <option>May</option> <option>June</option> </select> The process of building this list is done in a defined function in a 'Required' inclusion of a file. The problem is that the list gets built as follows: <select> <option>July</option> <option>August</option> <option>October</option> <option>October</option> <option>December</option> <option>December</option> <option>January</option> <option>March</option> <option>March</option> <option>May</option> <option>May</option> <option>July</option> </select> The function gets called as follows: ---------------------------------------------------- <? month_select($month); ?> ---------------------------------------------------- $month is defined just before the (above) call as follows: ---------------------------------------------------- if(!isset($month)) $month=date("n"); ---------------------------------------------------- The actual function is as follows: ---------------------------------------------------- function month_select($default=1) { $offset = date("n")-1; // value used to be 'm' echo ("<select name=month style=\"font-family:Verdana,Helvetica;font-size:8pt;\">"); for($x=1;$x<=12;$x++) { $month = $x + $offset; if($month>12) $month -= 12; echo("<option value=$month"); if($month==$default) echo(" selected"); echo(">".date("F",mktime(0,0,0,$month))."</option>"); } echo ("</select>"); } ---------------------------------------------------- Any Ideas what could be causing the problem? I'm new to this and have been staring at it for a while. Your help is greatly appreciated.
