[SOLVED] Days Calculation

[graham23s]

Hi Guys,

 

i can't seem to get this what im trying to do is work out the elapsed time in DAYS from 2 dates code is:

 

             $time_now = time();
             $d2 = date('Y-m-d H:i:s', $time_now);
             $d1 = date('Y-m-d H:i:s', strtotime($ng_date));
             $days = ceil(($d1 - $d2) / (60 * 60 * 24));

 

when echoing out it produces:

 

2007-06-02 16:53:24
2007-08-27 18:00:51

 

which is right, but $days echoes out as 0.

 

can anyone help lol

 

cheers

d1 and d2 are date strings. You need to work with the seconds values

 

$d2 = $time_now;

$d1 = strtotime($ng_date);

$days = ceil(($d1 - $d2) / (60 * 60 * 24));
