there was a problem with the previous (and probably also the original) file in this contribution. when installed, the customer would receive an error message if the create_account file were to call for itself, as it does when a customer tries to create an account with an email address already listed.
This version fixes that problem.
Also, if you do not use the osCommerse default date format of MM/DD/YYYY, take note that you will have to slightly modify a line of code in this file. I pointed it out in the documentation.

there's a thread in the forums to support this contribution:

This mod changes the Create Account page to show selectable drop down dates instead of the user manually entering birth date

Small change to show the * required information for those that want the birthdate field identified as a required field.

Simplified installation instructions

Dropdown menu for dob when create an account. short and easy.

I changed only one file : /catalog/create_account.php
