The resulting subtraction is not a valid timestamp, but rather the difference between the two timestamps in seconds . The resulting diff can be 1 if the timestamps are 1 seconds apart. The linkhttp://stackoverflow.com/questions/365191/how-to-get-time-difference-in-minutes-in-phpJonathan sent out

Well, I got the time displaying sort of right but have a length problem. See, using %T doesn't work in date() but %Z does but it returns a very long string 'Mountain Daylight Time' when all I want is 'MDT'. Is there a way around this problem other than having to edit the string date() returns??
