Find date difference in php?

Is there anyway to find the date difference in php? I have the input of from date 2003-10-17 and todate 2004-03-24. I need the results how many days is there within these two days. Say if 224 days, i need the output in days only.

I find the solution through mysql but i need in php. Anyone help me, Thanks in advance.

Solution

  • You can use the parse timestamp feature to convert dates to timestamps, subtract the timestamps, and then convert the resulting timestamp (seconds) to days:

    floor((strtotime("2004-03-24") - strtotime("2003-10-17"))/86400);
