date diff problem

[proctk]

Below is the complet function and the string of code that I'm trying to use to calculate a persons age.

It not wanting on my web server, for some reason when it gets to the point to exicute the string to calcualte the age the code stops runing. everythingis displayed until this point but nothing after.  there are no error message shown either.

Any idea why this is happening.

Thank you

[code=php:0]
<?
function dateDiff($dformat, $endDate, $beginDate)
{
          $date_parts1=explode($dformat, $beginDate);
          $date_parts2=explode($dformat, $endDate);
          $start_date=gregoriantojd($date_parts1[1], $date_parts1[2], $date_parts1[0]);
          $end_date=gregoriantojd($date_parts2[1], $date_parts2[2], $date_parts2[0]);
          return $end_date - $start_date;
}

?>
[/code]

[code=php:0]
$ownerAge = floor(dateDiff("-", date("Y-m-d"), $dob)/365);
[/code]

By the code you gave... You never show us when the function is being used.... How do you use it?

Example like this:
echo dateDiff($value1, $value2, $value3);

possibly because your error reporting has been turned off.  i imagine one of those gregoriantojd() functions is tossing an error for one reason or another.  try these lines at the top of your script:

[code]ini_set('display_errors', 1);
error_reporting(E_ALL);[/code]

@Little Guy:  unless he edited his post (doesn't appear that he has), his usage example is in plain view at the end of his message.

I get this error, thank you for showing me how to turn that feature on

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: gregoriantojd() in /services/webpages/f/a/familyclick.ca/public/familyConfig.php on line 6


all my date formats are  Y,m,d

if on Linux/Unix/Mac, you have to configure the calendar extension when you build PHP [b]--enable-calendar[/b], on Windows the extension is part of the core so no configuring needed!

how would I figurethis out. my hosting company is domaindirect.

[printf]

You can do...

[code]<?phpinfo();?>[/code]

But you really don't need to, because PHP has already told you that a function within the Calendar extension is [b]not defined[/b], which means the Calendar extension is not installed because the function [b]gregoriantojd()[/b] has been a member of the Calendar extension since PHP 3, so it wouldn't be a version difference causing the conflict or better said, a function being [b]undefined[/b].

So ask your host to install it for you...

anyone recomend a web hosting company

[JasonLewis]

why dont you download something like WAMP and have your scripts tested there until you find a host. i dont really no of any good ones because it has been a long time since i have had one...

[proctk]

I use wampp and my code works on there, only when I up load it do I run ito problems

[JasonLewis]

alright, well i suggest you either ask your host to upgrade there php or find a new host..
