   (fyi I'm a complete PHP newbie)

   I have added a custom field named 'Release' to my pages.
   In this field I describe the year a product will be released. (for example 08 for 2008)

   Now on my frontpage I want to generate a list of pages in a certain category (in this case category 2) that have this years number as the custom field.

   I currently got this far:

   <ul>
   <?php
   wp_list_pages('title_li=&child_of=2&meta_key=Release&meta_value='); ?>
   </ul>

   So i thought it would be best to put a php function in the meta_value field to retrieve the current year.

   <?php echo date("y"); ?>

   Somehow I just can't seem to combine these two and I end up with no results or an error.

   I would appreciate it if somebody could give me some advice on this.

   Thanks,
   Jimmy
