inserting current month as a include.

[hullcalendar]

hey guys, im trying to create a local event website displaying a calendar for each month showing local events.

 

now i haven't got around to actually setting up the database yet so im sure i will be back with more questions about that soon, however im just trying to get the site frame work and im using a lot of includes as the site is subject to a lot of change etc. \

 

now basically i have a page called 'whatson.php' which im using this code to switch the include depending on the link clicked

<?php
switch($_GET['changePage']) {
    default:
    case 'default':
    include('test1.php');
    break; 
    case 'january':
    include('january.php');
    break;
    case 'february':
    include('february.php');
    break;
    case 'march':
    include('march.php');
    break;
    case 'april':
    include('april.php');
    break;
    case 'may':
    include('may.php');
    break;
    case 'june':
    include('june.php');
    break;
    case 'july':
    include('july.php');
    break;
    case 'august':
    include('august.php');
    break;
    case 'september':
    include('september.php');
    break;
    case 'october':
    include('october.php');
    break;
    case 'novemeber':
    include('novemeber.php');
    break;
    case 'december':
    include('december.php');
    break;
}
?>

 

now what i want is the default page at the to to display the current month, so i was wondering if there is anyway somebody could help me out with a code that gets the current month from the server or somewhere and inserts it into the default month part at the top of that code...

 

any help would be amazing
