How to loop from December month of previous year to January month of next year?

magic

if i need to set this loop dec 2018 to march 2019 then how it works ??

@dasumenaria in that case you can do something like this:

<?php

 $start_month = 12;
 $end_month = 3;
 $start_year = 2018;

 for($m=$start_month; $m<=12; ++$m){

       if($start_month == 12 && $m==12 && $end_month < 12) 
       {
           $m = 0;
           $start_year = $start_year+1;
       }
 echo date('F Y', mktime(0, 0, 0, $m, 1, $start_year)).'<br>';
 if($m == $end_month) break;
}

This is a great solution, but if you need locale it's better to use strftime.

<?php
$currentMonth = date('n');
setlocale(LC_ALL,"de_DE.UTF8");
for($m=$currentMonth; $m<=12; ++$m){
    $months[$m] = strftime('%B', mktime(0, 0, 0, $m, 1));
}

PS - this will return an array and will default the start to the current month.
