Php days calculation

dylan912 · 10-19-2006, 04:57 AM

Hi all,

How do I calculate the total days by given a date and to present day. Example

Given date = 10-10-2006
Currant date = 19-10-2006 (this should define automatically)

So total days = 9
If 20-10-2006 it should print 10

This should print total days from the start we enter the date (given date)

Please help

You could use 'mktime' to get unix timestamps for the two dates. Then compute the difference between the timestamps and you have the seconds between the two dates. Divide by 60*60*24=86400 to get the difference in days.
