Converting timestamp to a "xx hours xx minutes ago" format, my take

[sw0o0sh]

function time_ago($timestamp)
{
//$months = array("Jan" => 31, "Feb" => 28, "Mar" => 31, "Apr" => 30, "May" => 31, "Jun" => 30, "Jul" => 31, "Aug" => 31, "Sept" => 30, "Oct" => 31, "Nov" => 30, "Dec" => 31);
$curr_time = time();
$time_ago = $curr_time - $timestamp;
if($time_ago < 60) // seconds
{
	$ext = $time_ago . " seconds ago..";
}
else
{
	if($time_ago >= 60) // minutes
	{
		$time = floor($time_ago / 60);
		$seconds_remainder = $time_ago % 60;
		$ext = $time . " minutes " . $seconds_remainder . " seconds ago..";

		if($time >= 60) // hours
		{
			$hours = floor($time / 60);
			$minutes = $time % 60;
			$ext = $hours . " hours " . $minutes . " minutes ago..";
			if($hours >= 24) // days
			{
				$days = floor($hours / 24);
				$day_hours = $hours % 24;
				$ext = $days . " days " . $day_hours . " hours ago ..";
			}
		}
	}
}
return $ext;
}

 

It seems to work fine (was going to tackle Months but haven't done it yet), but anyway is there a better way to do this? I'm guessing there is as I wrote this up rather fast and I'm not that great with date math. Any suggestions are appreciated (besides maybe using ternaries which I'm working on atm).

You could try and code in the months so it displays them as well... that's why it's not working.

 

PS: I coded a better version of this.

It not working isn't the problem I'm just looking for suggestions on how to improve this

Honestly I put this code in and it didn't display months.

Then it doesn't work.
