Checking TimeStamp Against Today

[JustinK101]

How can I check if a date/time unix timestamp in the format of:

 

$mytime = "1186439997";

 

Is within 5 days of the current unix timestamp? Basically I need to check if the passed in timestamp was generated within 5 days of today? Thanks.

Ok my bad, I explained this wrong.

 

I need to check if $myDate plus 5 days is greater then time(). How do I add 5 days to $myDate. Thanks!

Humm I am using this:

 

if((($myDate) + (5 * 24 * 60 * 60)) > time())

 

I though that would work, but appears not, am I missing something?

try

$x= date("d",118939997);

$y= date('d');

echo $x;

echo $y;

if ($x-$y >5)

get the given date and and check if aloder than five days something like that is that right?

That would be fine if you knew the months woudl be the same....

 

 

Try

 

//$t is your preset thing....
if(time() < $t + 24*60*60*5)) echo 'It\'s older than five days!';

//or....

$ntime = time() - $t;

if($ntime > (24*60*60*5)) echo 'Difference is greater than 5 days!';

This did the trick, thanks.

 

if(time() > (((int)$_GET['key']) + 24*60*60*5))
{
    echo '<h3>Past Due...</h3>';
}
