BetaONE will rise again! - Trouble With Date Ranges

I am using this php code to generate a month/day/year pull down menu but I cannot set it to pull previous years from the pulldown, only the current year + . Any ideas on how to resolve this?

Here is the area in question:

Code:

// generate year drop-down

echo "<select name=" . $prefix . "y>";

        for ($x=$currYear; $x<($currYear+5); $x++)

        {

        $str = "<option value=$x";

 &nbsp;if ($x == $currYear)

 &nbsp;{

 &nbsp;$str .= " selected";

 &nbsp;}

        $str .= ">" . sprintf("%04d", $x) . "</option>";

        echo $str;

        }

echo "</select>";

Here is the full code:

Code:

// function to format DATE values

function fixDate($val)

{

// split it up into components

$datearr = explode("-", $val);

// create a timestamp with mktime(), format it with date()

return date("d M Y", mktime(0, 0, 0, $datearr[1], $datearr[2], $datearr[0]));

}



// generate three list boxes for d-m-y selection

function generateDateSelector($prefix="")

{

// month array

$monthArray = array("", "January", "February", "March", "April", "May", "June", "July", "August", "September", "October", "November", "December");



// get current year, month and date

$arr = getdate(mktime());

$currYear = $arr["year"];

$currMonth = $arr["mon"];

$currDay = $arr["mday"];



// generate date drop-down

echo "<select name=" . $prefix . "d>";

        for ($x=1; $x<=31; $x++) 

        { 

        $str = "<option value=" . sprintf("%02d", $x) . "";

 &nbsp;if ($x == $currDay)

 &nbsp;{

 &nbsp;$str .= " selected";

 &nbsp;}

        $str .= ">" . sprintf("%02d", $x) . "</option>"; 

        echo $str;

        } 

echo "</select>";



// generate month drop-down

echo "<select name=" . $prefix . "m>";

        for ($x=1; $x<=12; $x++) 

        { 

        $str = "<option value=" . sprintf("%02d", $x) . "";

 &nbsp;if ($x == $currMonth)

 &nbsp;{

 &nbsp;$str .= " selected";

 &nbsp;}

        $str .= ">" . $monthArray[$x] . "</option>"; 

        echo $str;

        } 

echo "</select>";



// generate year drop-down

echo "<select name=" . $prefix . "y>";

        for ($x=$currYear; $x<($currYear+5); $x++)

        {

        $str = "<option value=$x";

 &nbsp;if ($x == $currYear)

 &nbsp;{

 &nbsp;$str .= " selected";

 &nbsp;}

        $str .= ">" . sprintf("%04d", $x) . "</option>";

        echo $str;

        }

echo "</select>";

}



?>

I tried changing this: $x<($currYear+5); to this:$x<($currYear-5); and some other variations but that does not seem to work. Any ideas while I keep researching?

Many TIA's to any who reply :)
