Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Echo date variable from data input to a script Post 302478187 by iga3725 on Tuesday 7th of December 2010 10:48:15 AM

Hi Vbe,
Sometimes my english sucks.. dont know if I couldn't explain what I want or you dont understand me what I write..:-)
The code below does:
1- Ask you for the las two characters of the year. --> I get the year VAR. (2010)
2- Is shows all months on console, so you select the desired month. --> I get month VAR (12)
3- It shows the 31 days on console, so you select the desired day --> I get here the day VAR (7)
But if you select a month with 30 days, the 3er part shows you 31 days.. that's the point. I want to print on the 3er part of the script the days the selected month have and I don't know how to do it.

Thanks

Code:
