It soerts it just fine by keys() alpabeticall but this isnt what i want, i need sorting by values()

for key in sorted( months.values() ): 
         print(''' 
                 <option value="%s"> %s </option> 
         ''' % (key, what should_we put here_to get the actual months 
name? ) 

the value is a vale form  the values in order, but how do i specify the correspondign key to that value?
