I found a VERY easy way to find time difference. It uses UNIX time stamps:
<?php
$s = $row["end"] - $row["start"];
$m = 0;
while ( $s >= "60" ) {
$m = $m + 1;
$s = $s - 60;
}
$h = 0;
while ( $m >= "60" ) {
$h = $h + 1;
$m = $m - 60;
}
$d = 0;
while ( $h >= "24" ) {
$d = $d + 1;
$h = $h - 24;
}
$diff = "";
if ( !$d == "0" ) {
$diff = $diff . "$d days ";
} if ( !$h == "0" ) {
$diff = $diff . "$h hours ";
} if ( !$m == "0" ) {
$diff = $diff . "$m minutes ";
} if ( !$s == "0" ) {
$diff = $diff . "$s seconds ";
} if ( $diff == "" ) {
$diff = "-";
}
trim ($diff);
?>

A correction to my previous one, for I didn't do a == in an if statement and it messes it up.
<?php
$s = $row["end"] - $row["start"];
$m = 0;
while ( $s >= "60" ) {
$m = $m + 1;
$s = $s - 60;
}
$h = 0;
while ( $m >= "60" ) {
$h = $h + 1;
$m = $m - 60;
}
$d = 0;
while ( $h >= "24" ) {
$d = $d + 1;
$h = $h - 24;
}
$diff = "";
if ( !$d == "0" ) {
$diff = $diff . "$d days ";
} if ( !$h == "0" ) {
$diff = $diff . "$h hours ";
} if ( !$m == "0" ) {
$diff = $diff . "$m minutes ";
} if ( !$s == "0" ) {
$diff = $diff . "$s seconds ";
} if ( $diff == "" ) {
$diff = "-";
}
trim ($diff);
?>
