Calculate Years, Months, Days, Hours, Minutes, Seconds out of Seconds

[pckidcomplainer]

Hey there,

I have a simple question: I want to calculate the Years, Months, Days and so on from an amount of seconds. What I do is something like this:

$date1= mktime ("13", "34", "19", "02", "17", "1995");
$date2 = mktime ("13", "34", "20", "02", "17", "2002");

$dif = $date1 - $date2;

So now I want to have a function that I will give $dif and it will return me something like an array with Years, Months, Days...

Is that possible???

Thx for your help!

$dif=floor(($date2-$date1)/86400);

Will return the difference in days.
I guess is something like that for years and months...

thy this...

// Get the number of seconds:
$seconds =  $future - time();
// the number of whole days is the number of seconds / 86400:
$days = (int)($seconds / (60 * 60 * 24));
// get any remainder:
$r = (int)($seconds % (60 * 60 * 24));
if($r) {
        // the number of hours is the remainder divided by 3600:
        $hours = (int)($r / (60 * 60));
        $r = (int)($r % (60 * 60));
        if($r) {
                $minutes = (int)($r / 60);
                $secs = (int)($r % 60);
        }
}
echo "days: " . $days . "<br />";
echo "hours: " . $hours . "<br />";
echo "mins: " . $minutes . "<br />";
echo "secs: " . $secs . "<br />";
