I guess this will work: $start = "19-02-2003"; $end = "21-02-2003"; // Split the strings into day, month, year list($sd, $sm, $sy) = split("-", $start); list($ed, $em, $ey) = split("-", $end); // Create unix time stamps for the start and end date $start_sec = mktime(0, 0, 0, $sm, $sd, $sy); $end_sec = mktime(0, 0, 0, $em, $ed, $ey); // Calculate number of days $num_days = ($end_sec - $start_sec) / 86400; // 86400 secs / day -- --Fredrik Faith, n: That quality which enables us to believe what we know to be untrue.
