time calculations

[buck2bcr]

Hi,

I have a problem with doing a time calculation. Let's say I have two times.

22:15 on June 21 and 07:15 on June 22. I want to be able to calculate the number of hours between those two times, which is 9 hours. How do I do this? Any help would be appreciated.

Right now I calculate from 22:15 to 24:00 put that diff in a variable then calculate from 00:00 to 07:15 then add the two times together to get the 9 hours. There must be a better way but I can't seem to figure it out.

Thanks,

Buck

If I do time calculate I use function time()
for examle:

function maketime($time){
$timezone = "+2"; // your timezone
return gmdate("d H:i", mktime(4,0,$time + $timezone * 3600,1,1,1970));
}
$time1 = "1025101000";
$time2 = "1025101752";

print(maketime($time2)." - ".maketime($time1)." = ".maketime($time2-$time1));

<?
$date1 = 'June 21, 2002 22:15';
$date2 = 'June 22, 2002 07:15';

$date1_ts = strtotime ($date1);
$date2_ts = strtotime ($date2);
$diff = $date2_ts - $date1_ts;
$diff = ($diff / 60) / 60;
$diff = round ($diff, 2);
echo "There are $diff hours difference between $date1 and $date2";
?>

Thanks for the help. I'll give them both a look.
