selecting current month from a database

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,

I know this might be trivial problem but I can't seem to figure it
out.  Here is my problem I have a drop down menu where I have the
months of year as menu items.  I want to be able to have the current
month be the selected month.  I have tried using the date function as
the way to set the current month as the selected value but it seems
that every value entered in the select box is set to selected.

Here is my code maybe someone can help me out

$month_query = mysql_query("SELECT m_id, months FROM Month");
	while ($r = mysql_fetch_array($month_query))
	{
		$v = $r["m_id"];
		$out = $r["months"];	
		echo("<option  selected=" . date("F") . "value=$v>$out</option>\n");
	}

Just incase you want to know

m_id = 1..12
months = January..December

How do I set only the current month to selected ?

Thanks,
Paul
