Need Help::array beginner

[seaminem]

What is wrong with my code, please help...

This is what IE error msg shows:
Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in C:\FoxServ\www\Home Work\Form2.php on line 2

Here is my code:

<? php
$MonthCode= array ("1","2","3","4","5","6","7","8","9","10","11","12");
$MonthName = array ("January","February","March","April","May","June","July","August","September","October","November","December");
?>

<select name= "Month" size=1>
<? php
//month
for ($i=0;$i<11;$i++)
{
$SelectNo="";
if ($Month == $MonthCode[$i]) $SelectNo = "selected";
print "<option value = '$MonthCode[$i]' $SelectNo> $MonthName[$i]";
}
?>

Thanx in advance... I may need help again later on with my first ASM

1.) You can't have a space between the "<?" and "php". The proper declaration is "<?php" (notice no space).

2.) You can simplify your code to use the date() function like below:

<?php
echo '<select name="Month" size="1">';
$options = '';
for($i=1; $i<=12; $i++)
{
	$sd = $i.'/01/2000';
	$month = date('F', strtotime($sd));
	$options .= '<option value="'.$i.'"';
	$options .=  ($i==@$_POST['Month'])?'selected>':'>';
	$options .=  $month.'</option>';
}

echo $options.'</select>';
?>
