[RESOLVED] convert var value to month name

[Rossonero]

how do I get this: $loop['month'] (contains a number betwen 1 & 12) to the actual name? ex Jan or Apr. As it's now it only returns the number

Oh bye the way. I'm using it in an echo.

echo "This month is called", $loop['month'];

I guess I should use the Date thingy but how?
thanks

make a fake date out of it, and then use date() to return the month.

<?php
  $t = mktime(, , , $loop['month'], 1);
  echo 'This month is ' . date('F', $t);
?>

worked like a charm but I had to replace all the , , , in mktime with nothing. like this:

$t = mktime($loop['month'], 1);

anyway. thanks alot kows

hehe did I mention I' am noob at php? ofcourse i could'nt remove the ,,,
this is what I use now and it works

$t = mktime(1,1,1, $loop['month'], 1);

just a question. With this code

$t = mktime($loop['month'], 1);

the month was returnt to me in swedish. Now it's in english. Why and can I make it swedish again?
