Another solution:
$month_now = date("n");
echo "<select name=\"month\">\n";
for($i=$month_now, $j=0; $i<=($month_now+12); $i++,$j++)
{
echo "<option value=\"$i\"";
if($i == $month_now)
{
echo " selected";
}
echo ">" . date("F Y", mktime(0, 0, 0, $month_now+$j, 1, date("Y"))) .
"</option>\n";
}
echo "</select>\n";
This will start the month's dropdown on the month of the year through to the
month of the following year, e.g. January 2003 to January 2004, February
2003 to February 2004, etc.
