Based on the code already posted by Dave, I've modified it to display the *current* date on a page:
<?php
$gregorianMonth = date(n);
$gregorianDay = date(j);
$gregorianYear = date(Y);
$jdDate = gregoriantojd($gregorianMonth,$gregorianDay,$gregorianYear);
$hebrewMonthName = jdmonthname($jdDate,4);
$hebrewDate = jdtojewish($jdDate);
list($hebrewMonth, $hebrewDay, $hebrewYear) = split('/',$hebrewDate);
echo "$hebrewDay $hebrewMonthName $hebrewYear";
?>

There's probably a simpler way to do this, but I needed to convert a Gregorian date to a Hebrew one and display it with the Hebrew month name (not the number).
Perhaps it can help somebody...
<?php
//enter your Gregorian date with the variables $gregorianMonth, $gregorianDay, and $gregorianYear using the numerical representation of the month
$jdDate = gregoriantojd ( $gregorianMonth, $gregorianDay, $gregorianYear);
$gregorianMonthName = jdmonthname ( $jdDate, 1 );
$hebrewDate = jdtojewish ($jdDate);
list ($hebrewMonth, $hebrewDay, $hebrewYear) = split ('/', $hebrewDate);
$hebrewMonthName = jdmonthname ( $jdDate, 4);
echo "Your date in Hebrew would read: $hebrewDay $hebrewMonthName $hebrewYear";
?>
