Note Submitter: johnedwarddoyle at googlemail dot com ---- I was looking for a way to return a list of months between now and a previous month for use in a select field. I came up with the following as I couldn't find anything else. There is probably an easier way to do it, but this way was quite interesting. <?php $start=strtotime("01 January 2010"); $now=strtotime(date("d F Y")); while($now>=$start) { echo "<option value=\"$now\">" . date('F Y', $now) . "</option>\n"; $now=$now-(60*60*24*(365/12)); } ?>
