xx seconds untill next hour/ month/ year

Hi,

can anyone tell me how to calculate how many seconds there are left from 'now' untill the next hour/ the next month/ the next year. I need this for the expiration-date of my cookies.

Thanx Michiel

Use the mktime() function. For example, to display the number of seconds until New Years Day 2003, you could do something like this:

<?php

echo (mktime(0,0,0,1,1,2003) - time());

?>

The function prototype for mktime() is:

(int) mktime(int hour, int minute, int second, int month, int day, int year)

Have fun...
