that'll do your day. based on that, you give month and year a shot

Also, your loop is using 'dd' as your index, and not 'i', so you need to change the IF statements to reflect that.

The months in numbers is really annoying. I have search in the cfmx function reference docs and I can only seem to find one other function for months: Monthasstring which both seem to use numeric values. How do I make the 1 to 12 values in the month select change? Thanks a lot for any help
<select name="month">
<cfloop from="1" to="12" index="i">
<option value="#i#"<cfif month(now()) EQ i> selected="selected"</cfif>>#i#</option>
</cfloop>
</select>
<cfset monthList =
"January,February,March,April,May,June,July,August,September,October,November,December" />
<cfloop list="#monthList#" index="m">
<option value="#m#"<cfif monthAsString(month(now())) IS m> selected="selected"</cfif>>#m#</option>
</cfloop>

you just answered the question you asked.
"...montasstring which ...seem to use numeric values."
don't you have numeric values (1-12)?
<cfloop from="1" to="12" index="i">
#monthAsString(i)#<br />
</cfloop>
^ what's that give you? can you use that function?

Just to clarify, my example does NOT use a 1-12 loop. I created a list with the months in it and then looped thru that list.
