I am having a little trouble thinking this morning. Suppose I just want to
know how many full days have elapsed since October 21, 2006.
$then = mktime(0,0,0,10,21,2006);
$now = time();
$days = floor(($now-$then)/86400);
echo "$days days since 2006-10-21";
Anyone see anything wrong with my reasoning here? This happens to straddle
a seasonal time change, but as I see it, that doesn't matter.
Thanks
