Ugly. Why not just let PHP print out all the options in a simple loop?
You could even let it generate the month names automatically if you want
(assuming proper locale support).

> <option value='$monthnow'selected>Current month</option>

There has to be a space between attributes. Additionally it's better
style to not use minimized attributes, but to write them according to
the stricter XHTML rules. This makes it easier to upgrade in the future.
So the result should look like

<option value='7' selected='selected'>Juli</option>
