setting users DOB

[runnerjp]

im struggling adding a users dob to a table

 

the format for dob is dob: 0000-00-00  but i want it day-month-year... 

 

and on the form all i can think of is <td>

<input id="dob" name="dob" type="text" size="25" value="" maxlength="255"></td>

</tr>

 

can any 1 point me into a direction to improve this please

would also not mind if someone could help me with getting users data,,,

 

i use this to go onto users profile

 

<a href="<?php  echo  get_username ( $_SESSION['user_id'] )  ; ?>">MyProfile</a>.</td> [/code}

thought i could do this to update a users profile

so follwing this link

[code]<a href=http://www.runningprofiles.com/members/test/update.php?id=$id\">Update</a>

 

and this will send you to update page with

include("connect.php");
$id = $_GET['id'];

$qProfile = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE id='$id'  ";
$rsProfile = mysql_query($qProfile);
$row = mysql_fetch_array($rsProfile);
extract($row);
$dob = stripslashes($dob);
$about_me = stripslashes($about_me);
$events = stripslashes($events);
$first_name = stripslashes($first_name);
$last_name = stripslashes($last_name);

mysql_close();?>

<form id="FormName" action="updated.php" method="post" name="FormName">
<table width="448" border="0" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="0">
<tr><td width="150"><div align="right">
<label for="dob">dob</label></div>
</td>
<td>
<input id="dob" name="dob" type="text" size="25" value="" maxlength="255"></td>
</tr>
<tr><td width="150"><div align="right">
<label for="about_me">about_me</label></div>
</td>
<td>
<textarea id="about_me" name="about_me" rows="4" cols="40"><?php echo $about_me ?></textarea></td>
</tr>
<tr><td width="150"><div align="right">
<label for="events">events</label></div>
</td>
<td>
<input id="events" name="events" type="text" size="25" value="<?php echo $events ?>" maxlength="255"></td>
</tr>

<tr><td width="150"><div align="right">
<label for="last_name">last_name</label></div>
</td>
<td>
<input id="last_name" name="last_name" type="text" size="25" value="<?php echo $last_name ?>" maxlength="255"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="150"></td>
<td><input type="submit" name="submitButtonName" value="Update"><input type="hidden" name="id" value="<?php echo $id ?>"></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>

 

but i get the error Warning: extract() [function.extract]: First argument should be an array in /home/runningp/public_html/members/test/update.php on line 14

 

i belive this is because it has not found the suers id... is this correct?? if so can i fix this[/code]
