asptoday_discuss thread: Getting the date in to a drop down menu.

Apologies for this, but I have been asked to finish off a project for a
Sports Photographic Agency, and they need a drop down menu which has
options like 'Today' 'Last 24 hours' which when selected brings up all the
images with the relevant date in the image caption.
Now, I can add the date physically in to a drop down menu, but I need help
in finding a solution which automates the process of changing the dates in
a daily routine.
Any ideas will be much appreciated.
Many Thanks
Paul

Paul,
Try something like this:
<select name="blabla">
<option value="<%=now%>">Today</option>
<option value="<%=now-1%>">Last 24 hours</option>
<!-- etc.... -->
</select>
In the next page you can use request("blabla") to compose a date using the
day() month() and year() functions.
Steven.
