Looks like I am a couple years behind on this thread, but I thought I would post my findings on problem 5 from the Pursue section. On register.php, I changed the value to zero for default selection on month and day. <p>Date Of Birth: <select name ="month"> <option value = "0">Month</option> <option value = "1">January</option> <select name = "day"> <option value ="0">Day</option> <?php // Print out 31 days: On handle_reg.php, I defined the posted variables and then combined them into a single variable. $dbm = $_POST['month']; $dbd = $_POST['day']; $dby = $_POST['year']; $birth_date = $dbm . '/' . $dbd . '/' .$dby; I then ran the checkdate function to verify the fields. if (checkdate($dbm, $dbd, $dby) != true) { print '<p class ="error">Please enter your full date of birth</p>'; $okay =FALSE; } Does this look good Larry? Thanks as well for writing this book! Can't wait to get to the next ones! Jesse
