Try below code if anyone want to use php loop to display.

<span>
      <select name="birth_month">
        <?php for( $m=1; $m<=12; ++$m ) { 
          $month_label = date('F', mktime(0, 0, 0, $m, 1));
        ?>
          <option value="<?php echo $month_label; ?>"><?php echo $month_label; ?></option>
        <?php } ?>
      </select> 
    </span>
    <span>
      <select name="birth_day">
        <?php 
          $start_date = 1;
          $end_date   = 31;
          for( $j=$start_date; $j<=$end_date; $j++ ) {
            echo '<option value='.$j.'>'.$j.'</option>';
          }
        ?>
      </select>
    </span>
    <span>
      <select name="birth_year">
        <?php 
          $year = date('Y');
          $min = $year - 60;
          $max = $year;
          for( $i=$max; $i>=$min; $i-- ) {
            echo '<option value='.$i.'>'.$i.'</option>';
          }

Line 53 should be updated to be <select name="year">

But we need validate if it's the correct date, says 2018-02-31 is wrong date, in client side at least the date dynamically change depend on selected year and month

@anggadarkprince
Copy link 

$('select[name=year]').on('change', function(){
    checkTotalDay();
});
$('select[name=month]').on('change', function(){
    checkTotalDay();
});

function checkTotalDay() {
    var year = $('select[name=year]').val();
    var month = $('select[name=month]').val();
    var totalDate = 31;
    if(year !== '' && month !== '') {
        totalDate = new Date(year, month, 0).getDate();
    }
    $('select[name=date]').empty();
    for(var i = 1; i <= totalDate; i++) {
       $('select[name=date]').append("<option value='"+i+"'>"+i+"</option>");
    }
}
