Wildhoney, I apologize in advance if stealing.. er, borrowing your code is in any way offensive, but just for clarity's sake;

PHP Code:


			
function dateDiff ($iStartDate, $iEndDate) {
    return sprintf('%d', (strtotime($iEndDate) - strtotime($iStartDate)) / 86400);
}

$iDiff = dateDiff('2008-05-29', '2008-06-01');
echo "Distance between two dates is {$iDiff} days.";

now you have a function that does it.

If it's not built in, but you know how to do it (or somebody shows you), you can make a function and use it as much as you like.
