changing background colour for current day php css

here is the screenshoot of my result I am trying to make a calander have some problem with the code.The code where error is generatring is tablerow.php according to me I have put comment where I think the error is. I am trying to change the current day background colour but instead of changing the colour of specific cell the whole month background colour is changed so for whole month of February the colour is green.

calander.php

<html>
<?php include 'dbconnect.php' ?>

<head>Event Calander</head>
<body>
<script>
        function goLastMonth(month, year){
            if(month == 1) {
                --year;
                month = 13;
            }
            document.location.href ="<?php $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];?>?month="+(month-1)+"&year="+year;

        }
        function goNextMonth(month, year){
            if(month == 12) {
                ++year;
                month = 0;
            }
            document.location.href ="<?php $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];?>?month="+(month+1)+"&year="+year;

        }
</script>
<style>
        .today{
            background-color: #00ff00;
        }
        .event{
            background-color: #FF8080;
        }
</style>

<table border='0'>
<tr>

    <td width='50px' colspan='7' align="center">
    <?php include 'tableheader.php' ?>
    <?php include 'addingData.php' ?>
    <?php echo $monthName.", ".$year; ?></td>
</tr>

</tr>
    <?php include 'tablerow.php' ?>

Try changing this:

$dateToCompare = $month. '/' . $day. '/' . $year;

into this:

$dateToCompare = $month. '/' . $day_num. '/' . $year;
