ok, so now using those values to set selects to today's date:
<cfset date = '#DateFormat('#CreateODBCDate(Now())#', 'yyyy-mm-dd')#'>
<cfset testday = #DatePart('d', date)#>
<cfset testmonth = #DatePart('m', date)#>
<cfset testyear = #DatePart('yyyy', date)#>
<cfset nextyear = NumberFormat(Evaluate(testyear+2), "0000")>
<cfoutput>
testday: #testday#<br>
testmonth: #testmonth#<br>
testyear: #testyear#<br>
</cfoutput>
<form>
<select>
<option value="null">please choose a month</option>
<cfloop from="1" to="12" index="m">
<cfoutput>
<option value="#m#" <cfif m IS
#testmonth#>selected</cfif>>#monthasstring(m)#</option>
</cfoutput>
</cfloop>
</select>
<br><br>
<select>
<option value="null">please choose a day</option>
<cfloop from="1" to="31" index="d">
<cfoutput>
<option value="#d#" <cfif d IS
#testday#>selected</cfif>>#Day(d)#</option>
</cfoutput>
</cfloop>
</select>
<br><br>
<select>
<option value="null">please choose a year</option>
<cfloop from="#testyear#" to="#nextyear#" index="y">
<cfoutput>
<option value="#y#" <cfif y IS #testyear#>selected</cfif>>#y#</option>
</cfoutput>
</cfloop>
</select>
</form>
which outputs this:
testday: 7
testmonth: 1
testyear: 2003 // which is all OK
but the values selcted in the drop downs are 'January' (which is right), '6'
(!wrong - out by a day) and '2003' (correct).
anyone an idea why it's 6, not 7 as it should be? I tried looping from 0 to
31, no difference...
ta again
