I want to build a select drop down that includes last year, the
current year and 3 years into the future. Obviously, I could easily
hard code this or use a combination of the date and mktime functions
to populate the select. However, I'm looking for a more elegant way
of doing this.
Quite simple:
$this_year = date('Y');
for ($i= $this_year-1; $i $this_year+3; ++$i) {
print option value='$i' .
($i==$this_year ? selected='selected' : '') . $i/option\n;
}
Obviously modify for however you're doing output. (Note that you DO want to
have the redundant value attribute in

Thanks, Larry. This was close, but didn't quite work. I played around
with the syntax and the following worked great.
$this_year = date('Y');
echo select\n;
for ($i= $this_year-1; $i $this_year+3; ++$i) {
echo option value='$i';
if($i == $this_year)
echo
