This represents 2 fields in a mysql database
[login] => 2005-08-22 18:04:41
[logout] => 2005-08-22 18:05:08

I want to find out the difference between these 2 times.
I don't have access to mysql's DATEDIFF function.

How do I do this ? Its there perhaps, a web page that explains how ?
I have looked at the date and time functions of the mysql manual but i
don't understand it.

You could calculate the difference yourself:

SELECT UNIX_TIMESTAMP(logout) - UNIX_TIMESTAMP(login) AS secondsdif
