A nice way to calc age seeing that mktime only goes back until 1970 is to use the date function like this... //Find the difference in year, month, and day $yeardiff = date("Y") - $dobyear; $monthdiff = date("m") - $dobmonth; $daydiff = date("j") - $dobday; /* * if month or day is negative we have yet to reach it so * we need to subtract a year seeing we haven't * reached our birthday yet, else yeardiff is correct */ if($monthdiff < 0 || $daydiff < 0){ $age = $yeardiff - 1; }else{ $age = $yeardiff; } echo $age; ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+45152 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+45152&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+45152&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
