Actually, I'd expect that if you try your code again today, it works
just like you'd expect.
Mktime() uses the current (local date/time) value for any parameters
that you leave out. Since you were running this on July 31st, that
means your mktime call was trying to build timestamps for February 31st
(which is actually in March), April 31st (actually in May), and so on.

RE: [PHP] Trouble creating a list on months
Oops! I forgot to include the parameter...
function month_select($month)
{
echo "\n";
$month_names = array(1 => "January", 2 => "February", 3 =>
"March",
4 => "April", 5 => "May", 6 => "June", 7 => "July",
8 => "August", 9 => "September", 10 => "October",
11 => "November", 12 => "December");
if(!isset($month)) $month = (int)strftime("%m");
for($num_months = 0; $num_months < 12; $num_months++)
{
echo "\t" . $month_names[$month] .
"\n";
$month = ($month == 12? 1 : $month + 1);
}
echo "\n";
}
I didn't get a chance to test this, but you get the idea...
Good luck.

Subject: [PHP] Trouble creating a list on months
Hello everyone,
This is my first posting. I'm hoping someone can help figure this
out. I'm using a GNU licensed calendar but there is a bug in it's
process for building a list of months.
The list is supposed to build a list of months starting with the
current month and adding 11 months to the list. In theory, If this
is July the should be as follows:
July
August
September
October
November
December
January
Februrary
March
April
May
June
The process of building this list is done in a defined function in a
'Required' inclusion of a file.
The problem is that the list gets built as follows:
July
August
October
October
December
December
January
March
March
May
May
July
The function gets called as follows:
$month is defined just before the (above) call as follows:
if(!isset($month)) $month=date("n");
The actual function is as follows:
function month_select($default=1) {
$offset = date("n")-1; // value used to be 'm'
echo ("");
for($x=1;$x<=12;$x++) {
$month = $x + $offset;
if($month>12) $month -= 12;
echo("".date("F",mktime(0,0,0,$month))."");
}
echo ("");
}
Any Ideas what could be causing the problem? I'm new to this and
have been staring at it for a while. Your help is greatly
appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Mario Salinas
