<select name="month" onchange="put_m()">
<option>January</option>
<option>February</option>
<option>March</option>
<option>April</option>
<option>May</option>
<option>June</option>
<option>July</option>
<option>August</option>
<option>September</option>
<option>October</option>
<option>November</option>
<option>December</option>
</select>
is there an easy way, so the dropdown list will not return the name of the month when using this function
function put_m()
{
option=document.forms[0].month.options[document.forms[0].month.selectedIndex].text
m=option
}
but instead returning the number of the month (e.g. for april it should return "04")
thanks in advance
