I'm building my first application that requires a calendar. I have it working great for the current month. My problem is that i'm not sure how to make it so that when a user clicks the link to go to the next month, it will show the next month. I'll try to only post the code that is necessary so here's my variables\[code\]//gets todays date$date = time();//This puts the day, month, and year in separate variables$day = date('d', $date);$month = date('m', $date);$year = date('y', $date);$bigYear = date('Y', $date);$first_day = mktime(0, 0, 0, $month, 1, $year); //we need to generate the first day of the month$month_name = date('F', $first_day); //get the current month's full spelling$day_of_week = date('D', $first_day); //find out what day of the week the first day of the month falls on$prevM = getDate(mktime(0, 0, 0, $month-1, 1, $year)); //gets an associative array of the previous month$nextM = getDate(mktime(0, 0, 0, $month+1, 1, $year)); //gets an associative array of the next month$prevMonth = $prevM['month']; //gets the actual previous month's name$nextMonth = $nextM['month']; //gets the actual next month's name$day_count = 1; //counts the days up to 7 so we know when to start a new week$day_num = 1; //counter for the total number of days in the month\[/code\]and here's my links that are supposed to take you to the next and previous months\[code\]echo "<th colspan=2 class=\"noBorder\"><a href='http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3818606/{$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']}?currentpage=$prevMonth'>«</a></th>";echo "<th colspan=3 class=\"noBorder\"><strong>$month_name</strong></th>";echo "<th colspan=2 class=\"noBorder\"><a href='http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3818606/{$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']}?currentpage=$nextMonth'>»</a></th>";\[/code\]
