so i found a function for age some time ago and seems like it works SOME of the time, but ive recently run across some errors; function age($patientsbirthday){ list($day,$month,$year) = explode("/",$patientsbirthday); $year_diff = date("Y") - $year; $month_diff = date("m") - $month; $day_diff = date("d") - $day; if ($day_diff < 0 && $month_diff==0){$year_diff--;} if ($day_diff < 0 && $month_diff < 0){$year_diff--;} return $year_diff; } The persons birthday is input as day, month (DEcember), and year (all varchar) i convert the month to a number using $monthnum = $row['birthmonth']; $monthnum = date_parse($monthnum); and then pass this to the function $patientsbirthday = $row['birthday']. "/" . $monthnum['month'] ."/".$row['birthyear']; heres a couple examples i get returned: echo $patientsbirthday; echo " (" . age($patientsbirthday) . ")"; 10/4/2004 (10) correct 12/12/1991 (23) correct 1/12/2000 (15) incorrect 23/9/1969 (45) correct 3/9/1988 (27) incorrect Anybody see something obvious i am doing wrong here?
