date difference

[anu123]

 

I have two dates in yy-mm-dd format.i need to find the number of months between these dates

 

[jaymc]

use date() to convert your date string into integer months

 

09 = september

12 = decemeber

 

Then just take them away from each other

 

12 - 9 = 3 months between us

<?php

    $d1 = date('m',strtotime('2007-10-02'));
    $d2 = date('m',strtotime('2007-07-02'));
    $d3 = $d1 - $d2;
    echo $d3;

?>

another method is that u can use explode function php to separate strings n then compare the corresponding values of the date
