hello sir..i am wondering how to calculate between two dates..here is my code:
<input type="text" name"date1" value="mm/dd/yyyy">
<input type="text" name"date2" value="mm/dd/yyyy">
<input type="submit" name"calculate" value="calculate">
<?php echo $answer;?>example value of date1 is 09/26/2010
example value of date2 is 09/27/2010
so the answer should be 1 by subtracting date2 to date1

Here is complete code what you need.
Hope it will help you.
<?php
if(isset($_REQUEST['calculate']))
{
$temp1 = explode('/',$_REQUEST['date1']);
$date1 = mktime(0,0,0,$temp1[0],$temp1[1],$temp1[2]);
$temp2 = explode('/',$_REQUEST['date2']);
$date2 = mktime(0,0,0,$temp2[0],$temp2[1],$temp2[2]);
$dateDiff = $date2 - $date1;
$fullDays = floor($dateDiff/(60*60*24));
$fullHours = floor(($dateDiff-($fullDays*60*60*24))/(60*60));
$fullMinutes = floor(($dateDiff-($fullDays*60*60*24)-($fullHours*60*60))/60);
$answer = "Differernce between date2 and date1 is : $fullDays days, $fullHours hours and $fullMinutes minutes.";
