Calculating Number of days in php

[realin]

hi guys..

I have made a function which counts the numbers of days or hours or minutes from the current datetime to the give datetime.. but i am confused while displaying number of days along with number of hours.. rest all works fine(I Suppose).
here is the code :

 
function day_counter($date,$msg){
$today=time();
 
$day_to_count=strtotime($date);
if($day_to_count>$today){
$rem=$day_to_count-$today;
}
 
else {if($today>$day_to_count){
$rem=$today-$day_to_count;
 
}}
 
if($rem>=86400){
$days=$rem/86400;
 
$days=round($days,2);
$dys=(int)$days;
$h=(float)strstr($days,".");
 
$h=round($h*24);
if($h==24)
$dys+=1;
if($h<=0 OR $h==24)
return "<b>".$dys."</b> Days ".$msg;
return "<b>".$dys."</b> Days <b>".$h."</b> Hours ".$msg;
}
if($rem>=3600){
$hours=$rem/3600;
$hours=round($hours,2);
$hrs=(int)$hours;
$mn=(float)strstr($hours,".");
$mn=ceil($mn*60);
if($mn<=0)
return "<b>".$hrs."</b> Hours ".$msg;
return "<b>".$hrs."</b> Hours <b>".$mn."</b> Minutes ";
 }
 
if($rem>=60){
$min=$rem/60;
$min=round($min,2);
$mnm=(int)$min;
$sec=(float)strstr($min,".");
$sec=ceil($sec*60);
if($sec<=0)
return "<b>".$mnm."</b> Minutes ".$msg;
return "<b>".$mnm."</b> Minutes <b>".$sec." </b>Seconds";
}
if($rem>0 && $rem<60){
return "<b>".$rem."</b> Seconds".$msg;
}
}

And i want to know, is this the right way to get the decimal part of a number ?

Heya, realin.

$fpart = $val - (int) $val;

Heya, realin.

$fpart = $val - (int) $val;
 

hi again !!

thanks for the reply.. but is the rest of code,allright ?? i mean it doesnt calculate the number of hours accurately in the first case.. that means along with the number of days..

Heya, Realin.

$diff = abs(time() - strtotime($date));
 
$days = (int) ($diff / 86400);
$day_remainder = $diff % 86400;
 
$hours = (int) ($day_remainder / 3600);
$hour_remainder = $day_remainder % 3600;
 

And so on....

I did it the long way the first time, too ~_^
