Help Finding the distance between 2 dates...

Hi all.

Im trying to find a method (if there is any) that can calculate the distance in days, months or years between two dates. Mainly the distance in days. i almost searched the whole datetime object to no afail...

So for example i have 2008-05-29 and 2008-06-01 i would like to find the distance in days for instance which should be 3. or in months wich should be 1 or years that should be 0.

Usually i use mysql to solve this little math problem, but i was wondering if there isnt a php method that could calculate this instead of using de expensive sql connection all the time to solve it...

Hope its kinda clear what i mean...

Thanks in advance,

May
