    Default getting the current date

    hi guys I?ve created 3 selection boxes on a form:
    1 for the date, with values 1 - 31.
    1 for the month, with values 1- 12
    1 for the year with values 2005 - 2008

    i would like the selection boxes to display the current date.

    it didn't really.
    i am new to programming and i don't really know how to incorporate the example
    to the code i wrote
    that is the code and as you can see it is manually selected.
    how do i automate it and programmatically select the month ?



    <select class="txtSelect" name="SelMonth" size="1" tabindex="2">
    <option VALUE=01>Jan</option>
    <option VALUE=02>Feb</option>
    <option VALUE=03>Mar</option>
    <option VALUE=04>Apr</option>

    Are you using VBScript? If so, here is the answer...

    Month(Date) returns the Month
    Day(Date) returns the Day
    Year(Date) returns the Year

    Copy the code below into a new ASP page,

    <%
    Response.Write("Hello, today's date is, " & Date & "<br><br>")
    Response.Write("The Month is " & Month(Date) & "<br>")
    Response.Write("The Day is " & Day(Date) & "<br>")
    Response.Write("The Year is " & Year(Date) & "<br>")
    %>

    That will return the date, and then the parts of the date...
