year select

[kproc]

Hi I have the below code that putt to year in the past into a select option.

I want two years in the past, the current year and two years in the future to be offered in the select menu and I want the current year to be the default value

any idea how to make the changes

<?php
            
$thisYear = date('Y');
$yearsN = range($thisYear - 2, $thisYear);
$yearsN = array_reverse($yearsN); 

foreach(array_reverse($yearsN) as $value)
{
  echo '<option ';
  if($value == $year)
  {
    echo " selected='selected'";
  }
  echo ">$value</option>\n";
}
?>

I think this is what you're looking for (untested):

<?php            
$thisYear = date('Y');
$yearsN = range($thisYear - 2, $thisYear + 2);
$yearsN = array_reverse($yearsN);

foreach(array_reverse($yearsN) as $value)
{
  echo '<option ';
  if($value == $thisYear)
  {
    echo " selected='selected'";
  }
  echo ">$value</option>\n";
}
?>

<?php            
$thisYear = date('Y');
$yearsN = range($thisYear - 2, $thisYear + 2);

echo '<select name="year">';
foreach($yearsN as $value) {
    echo '<option value="' . $value . '"';
    if($value == $thisYear) {
        echo ' selected="selected';
    }
    echo "\">$value</option>\n";
}
echo '</select>';
?>
