Question about count

[JSHINER]

foreach ($page['people'] as $z) {

$date = date('m-d-y', strtotime($z['date']));

$now = date('m-d-y');

}

 

How can I create something that counts how many $date = $now - so if there were 50 dates, and seven of them = $now I could display "7 today"

Put an if inside your loop, then keep adding to a variable and set it into an array:

$i = 0;
$array = array();
foreach ($page['people'] as $z)
{
    $date = date('m-d-y', strtotime($z['date']));

    $now = date('m-d-y');

    if($date == $now)
    {
        $array[] = "Whatever you want to store here";
    }
}

for($i=0; $i <= 7; $i++)
{
    echo $array[$i];
}
