Hi there guys, I am new to php and as my first language is C# I would appreciate any help regarding this. I have a form with a drop down with previous year month's and current year's months, however I would like the default selected value to be previous month and not current month. Here is a snippet of the code I have worked on.... <optgroup label="<?=(date("Y")-1)?>"><?=(date("Y")-1)?> <? for( $x=1; $x<13; $x++ ){ $time = mktime(0, 0, 0, $x, 1, date("Y")); ?><option value="<?=( (date("Y")-1)."-".date("m", $time))?>"><?=date("F", $time)?></option><? } ?> </optgroup> <optgroup label="<?=(date("Y"))?>"><?=(date("Y"))?> <? for( $x=1; $x<date("n")+1; $x++ ){ $time = mktime(0, 0, 0, $x, 1, date("Y")); $selected = ( date("n", $time)==(date("n")))? 'selected="selected"' : ""; ?><option value="<?=( date("Y")."-".date("m", $time)."-".date('d') )?>" <?=$selected?>><?=date("F", $time)?></option><? } ?> Any help would be appreciated
