Populating a dropdown with recent years

I have a <sel开发者_Python百科ect> dropdown with which I want to populate the previous 20 years as well as the current year. How would I go about this?

---

It would be simpler to use strtotime()

echo strtotime("+1 year");

You can also use this inside a loop

echo strtotime("+".$i." year");

Where $i is the index in the loop.

This should be all you need:

echo "<select>";
for ($i = date("Y") - 20; $i <= date("Y"); $i++)
{
    echo "<option value='{$i}'>{$i}</option>";
}
echo "</select>";

---

What about trying something like this:

for (i=0;i<20;i++) {
    echo mktime(0, 0, 0, date("m"),   date("d"),   date("Y")+i);
}

---

Seems like you just need a snippet like this:

$current_year = date("Y");
$min_year = 1990;

echo '<select name="year">';
echo '<option value="">Select Year..</option>";

for($i=$min_year; $i<=$current_year; $i++) {
echo '<option value="'.$i.'">'.$i.'</option>';
}

echo '</select>';
