onemind Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Hi,I have a datetime field in a mysql database and i want to output how many days, hours and minutes are left between the current date and the future date.So far i just convert the datettime to a timestamp like so: $start = strtotime($began); Where $began is the current time, basically i just need to know how to convert a timestamp to days, hours ect If i was to minus the current timestamp from the future timestamp.Any help would be greatly appreciated.Thanks :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onemind Posted July 24, 2006 Author Share Posted July 24, 2006 Thanks, i figured it out. $diff = $ends-$now; $days = intval($diff/24/60/60); $remain=$diff%86400; $hours=intval($remain/3600); $remain=$remain%3600; $mins=intval($remain/60); :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
