There is an useful php function on the
date tips page for converting
{html_select_date}
form values to a timestamp.
Пример 8.16. {html_select_date}
Template code
{html_select_date}
This will output:
<select name="Date_Month"> <option value="1">January</option> <option value="2">February</option> <option value="3">March</option> ..... snipped ..... <option value="10">October</option> <option value="11">November</option> <option value="12" selected="selected">December</option> </select> <select name="Date_Day"> <option value="1">01</option> <option value="2">02</option> <option value="3">03</option> ..... snipped ..... <option value="11">11</option> <option value="12">12</option> <option value="13" selected="selected">13</option> <option value="14">14</option> <option value="15">15</option> ..... snipped ..... <option value="29">29</option> <option value="30">30</option> <option value="31">31</option> </select> <select name="Date_Year"> <option value="2006" selected="selected">2006</option> </select>
Пример 8.17. {html_select_date} second example
{* start and end year can be relative to current year *} {html_select_date prefix='StartDate' time=$time start_year='-5' end_year='+1' display_days=false}
With 2000 as the current year the output:
<select name="StartDateMonth"> <option value="1">January</option> <option value="2">February</option> .... snipped .... <option value="11">November</option> <option value="12" selected="selected">December</option> </select> <select name="StartDateYear"> <option value="1995">1995</option> .... snipped .... <option value="1999">1999</option> <option value="2000" selected="selected">2000</option> <option value="2001">2001</option> </select>
