php print out array

Question

I have an array and can't really narrow down the right way to print everything out.

Array:

$month = Array(
    "1" => "January",
    "2" => "February",
    "3" => "March",
    "4" => "April",
    "5" => "May",
    "6" => "June",
    "7" => "July",
    "8" => "August",
    "9" => "September",
    "10" => "October",
    "11" => "November",
    "12" => "December"
);

What I Tried:

function monthList() {
    require "config.php";
        echo '<select name="month" title="Choose A Month">';
    foreach ($month as $i => $value) {
        echo '<option value="'.the_month_#_here.'">'.$month[$i].'</option>';
    }
        echo '</select>';
}

Which works fine for pulling out the name but how would i pull out the number associated with it in the array? Thats what I need as the option value.

@rackemup420 And don't use $month[$i]. The point of the foreach loop is that you assigned each iteration to $value. — Michael Berkowski

Use $value in the foreach loop, not $month[$i].

@Michael, that is much better form, yes, but either should work.

Use

echo '<option value="'.$i.'">'.$value.'</option>';

instead of

echo '<option value="'.the_month_#_here.'">'.$month[$i].'</option>';
