The conversions to Unix timestamp is done presumbly so to make it
easier to determine whether the days shown are in the past or in the
future. Instead of comparing three numbers--the year, the month, and
the day--you compare just one. The strategy just ends up complicating
the code. It'd easy enough to do this:
if($year < $today_year || $month < $today_month || $day < $today_day) {
/* days in the past */
}
else if($year > $today_year || $month > $today_month || $day >
$today_day) {
/* days in the future */
}
else {
/* today */
}
