elapsed time function - how do I convert it to only total seconds?

[NotGiven]

Below is a good elapsed time function I found. However, I'd like to return
total seconds instead of broken down into days, hours, minutes & seconds.
In other words, I want "125" instead of "2 minutes 5 seconds".

Any ideas? Thanks very much!
function calcElapsedTime ($time)
{ // calculate elapsed time (in seconds!)
$diff = time()-$time;
$daysDiff = floor($diff/60/60/24);
$diff -= $daysDiff*60*60 *24;
$hrsDiff = floor($diff/60/60);
$diff -= $hrsDiff*60*60;
$minsDiff = floor($diff/60);
$diff -= $minsDiff*60;
$secsDiff = $diff;
return ('(elapsed time '.$daysDiff.'d '.$hrsDiff.'h '.$minsDiff.'m
'.$secsDiff.'s) ');
}
