I needed to calculate the difference between two dates in days based on current date and a date from
the DB.
This will be used to check if a members subscription has lapsed ( i.e 365 days have passed ).
Here's the (simple) code:
//calculate the difference between two dates in days.
$regDate=strtotime("July 15, 2005"); //will come from DB
$curDate=mktime(); //current UNIX timestamp.
$diff= $curDate - $regDate; //date diff in seconds
$diff = $diff / 86400; //date diff in days
echo $diff; //will be used to check member subscription
hope it helps someone.
