It might work fine but I found out it only goes to 364 days of
distance, so here's a new code, completely fixed for that bug:
[PHP]
<?php
$date1 = '2005-12-25 00:56:27 GMT' ; // Note the timezone
specification
$date2 = '2005-12-27 05:56:27 GMT' ; // Note the timezone
specification
$time_fix = 3600;
$time1 = strtotime($date1);
$time2 = strtotime($date2) ;
$difference = $time2 - $time1;
$years = date('Y', $difference) - 1970;
print "$years years, ";
print date('z \d\a\y\s\, H:i:s', $difference - $time_fix); // X days,
Hours:Minutes:Seconds
?>
[/PHP]
I removed the 1970 because that was the default value, so if the
distance is 0 years, then it will show up as 1970 - 1970 which is 0.
Also, in $time_fix, you can edit the number of seconds to remove from
the difference, so if you don't need to remove 3600 or whatever, you
can edit that easily.
