Hello all,
i am writing a tiny program as an excersize to take someones age and determine how many seconds old they are. This is the php to what i have so far: -
<?php
-
-
$action = $_POST['action'];
-
$name= $_POST['name'];
-
$month=$_POST['month'];
-
$day= $_POST['day'];
-
$year= $_POST['year'];
-
$time= $_POST['time'];
-
$m= ("$month,$day");
-
$calculate= "$month, $day, $year, $time";
-
-
?>
-
-
<?php
-
echo("Hello, $name ! ");
-
echo("You were born on $month $day, $year at $time o'clock".'</br>');
-
echo('you are ');
-
echo time() - strtotime ("$m, $year, $time, $year");
-
echo (' seconds old!');
-
-
-
?>
-
The problem is that it doesnt calculate properly. I think this line: echo time() - strtotime ("$m, $year, $time, $year");
is the problem, i just dont know how to fix it. Please help!!!!
Thanks,

Heya, Wadro. Welcome to TSDN!
What is your code doing that you don't want it to do? Give an example.
What is your code *not* doing that it is supposed to? Give an example.
here is the out put:
Hello, ! You were born on jun 18, 1982 at 11:00 o'clock
you are 1187893914 seconds old!
The seconds that are calculating (1187893914) are wrong. as i refresh the screen the seconds are updated they just dont have the write answer. i dont know were it gets the 1187893914 from.
Thanks,
Heya, Wadro.
I'll bet that your script is outputting the number of seconds since December 31, 1969 11:59:59.
Try this instead: -
echo time() - strtotime("$year-$month-$day $time");

Thats it! Thanks for quick reply!

Hi.
Have you considered calculating the seconds manually, instead of using the strtotime() function?
Edit: on second thought, thats the long way around. Your way is better :)
Heya, Wadro.
Glad to hear you got it working! Good luck with your project, and if you ever need anything, post back anytime :)
