how many years months and days

[icthus]

I am getting no where on this... I have a date in MySQL, it can be in any format at this point (timestamp,date,INT...). What I need is to output to the page just how much tame has lapsed since that date in the database. I want to report just how many years, months and days have passed.
I am using PHP 4.2.1 and MySQL 3.23.18-alpha.
TIA

Take a look at [man]getdate[/man].

It'll give all you need for the database date and the current date. From there it's just arithmetic.

Thanks barand, that was what I needed!
