The subject pretty much explains it all. I have 2 dates (YYYYMMDDHHSS format) and want to determine the number of days, hours, minutes and seconds left from the later date to the earlier date. I figure I could do all this using date arithmatic, divide by 60 seconds in a minute, 60 minutes in an hour, 24 hours in a day and so forth, but was wondering if there a better (or easier way) to do this before I start coding away.? _______________________________________________________ Send a cool gift with your E-Card http://www.bluemountain.com/giftcenter/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
