Time picker that defaults to current

[TeamTJ]

I am wanting a time picker that default to the current time.

I want to use code like this, but don't quite know how to make it default. Any suggestions?

 $hours = '<select name="hour">'."\n";
$minutes = '<select name="min">'."\n";

function check($num)
{
    if($num<10 && strlen($num)<2)
    {
        $num = '0'.$num;
    }
    return $num;
}

for($i=0; $i<13; $i++)
{
    $hours .= '<option value="'.check($i).'">'.$i.'</option>'."\n";
}
$hours .= '</select>';

for($i=0; $i<60; $i++)
{
    $minutes .= '<option value="'.check($i).'">'.check($i).'</option>'."\n";
}
$minutes .= '</select>';

change

$hours .= '<option value="'.check($i).'">'.$i.'</option>'."\n";

to

$hours .= '<option value="'.check($i).'"';
if (date("g",time())==$i) { $hours .= " selected"; }
$hours .= '>'.$i.'</option>'."\n";

likewise, the minutes become:

$minutes .= '<option value="'.check($i).'"';
if (date("i",time())==$i) { $minutes .= " selected"; }
$minutes .= '>'.check($i).'</option>'."\n";
