Thanks for the help, its working fine now. Thought it must have been something simple but couldn't figure it out and was spending far too long trying. Col

Hi I'm new to php and have just started using it for an assignment at university I'm wanting to create a date input section on a website using 3 combo boxes for day, month and year I then want to store this date in a mysql table $month = array(1=>"January", "February", "March"........); $day = $_POST['day']; $year = $_POST['year']; $query = "INSERT INTO table (date) VALUES ('$year-???-$day')"; The only question i have got is how to get the numerical value of the selected month and put it in place of "???" ? Thanks Col
