Second of all, microtime returns a string containing "msec sec", so you'll need to do this: list($smsec, $ssec) = explode(" ", microtime()); list($emsec, $esec) = explode(" ", microtime()); $dSec = $esec - $ssec $dMsec = $emsec - $smsec Then, if you wanted the number of seconds it took, use $dSec. If you want the number of milliseconds, use $dMsec. Or, if you want to know both, just add $dSec and $dMsec and use the result.
