[PHP] Month

[Dan Shirah]

Greetings,

I have the following code which populates a dropdown box so a user can
select a month.  They see the month name and the SELECTED value is the
corresponding numeric value 1-12 for the month.   However, the selected
value for January would be 1.   I need the selected value fro January to be
01.  How would I accomplish this?

<select name="month">
   <?PHP
    for ($m=1;$m<=12;$m++)
    {
     $months=date('M', mktime(0, 0, 0, $m, 1));
     if ($m == $_POST['month'])
      echo "<option value=\"{$m}\" SELECTED>{$months}</option>";
     else
      echo "<option value=\"$m\">$months</option>";
    }
   ?>
</select>
