Well you could do two str2time() calls like this:
# Two Dates to Compare #
$date1 = strtotime("Oct 18, 2002");
$date2 = strtotime("Jan 18, 2002");
# Assign the earliest date and laterdate to variables #
$earlyDate = ($date1 < $date2) ? $date1 : $date2;
$laterDate = ($earlyDate == $date1) ? $date2 : $date1;
# Computes to find how many days are between the two dates #
$daysBetween = ceil(($laterDate - $earlyDate)/(60*60*24));
echo $daysBetween;
There's probably an easier way of doing this, but hey it works! ;)
