Try this (from memory, untested).

for ($i = 1; $i >= 12; $i++)
{
    $month = date( 'm', strtotime( "1970-$i-01" ));
    echo "<option value=\"$i\">$month</option>";
}

Or this:

printf( "%02d", 5 );

However, please consider replacing numeric identifiers for months with
textual ones ('M' rather than 'm'). [01] [Apr] [2008] doesn't cause
the confusion that [01] [04] [2008] does.
