acook Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 Does anyone know, Is it possible to define a variable (like a date) and then make it selectable in a dropdown? For example: <?php $today = date("Y-m-d"); $tomorrow = date("Y-m-d",mktime(0,0,0,date("m"), date("d")+1, date("Y"))); ?> <html> <form action="process.php" method="post"> <select name="date" id="date"> <option value="<?php $today ?>"> Today </option> <option value="<?php $tomorrow ?>"> Tomorrow </option> </select> <input type="submit" value="Search!"/> </form> </html> The above code doesn't seem to work... it actually shows the result as $today or $tomorrow ...and not the actual dates. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerRobot Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 You need to echo the variables: <option value="<?php echo $today; ?>"> Today </option> <option value="<?php echo $tomorrow; ?>"> Tomorrow </option> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
