<?
/* This program work out the difference between 2 dates one been the current date and the
is set by changing the numbers in $pastdate. This could easily be configured to accept
input from a form.*/
//this sets the variable $today to todays date
$today = date("d/m/Y");
//this sets the variable $birthday to the date selected
$pastdate = date("18/11/1983");
//this seperates the $today into an array
$explodetoday = explode("/", $today);
//this makes a timestamp out of the exploded date this number is in seconds

//this works out the age of the person in years

Not as good as some others but this is the first real bit of code i have created.
