You can use strtotime() (probably) to convert what's entered into a unix timestamp. From there you know how many seconds are in a day, so a little math can figure out how many days are between the two dates. You can use date() to find out the month of each one and do some more math... ---John W. Holmes... PHP Architect - A monthly magazine for PHP Professionals.
