I've been using this one, which is probably close enough for government
work ;) It calculates to a one-month resolution.
// Calculates elapsed years between fdate and tdate.
// The default for "to date" is today.
function elapsed_years($fdate, $tdate=0) {
if ($tdate == 0) {
$tdate = time();
}
$fa = getdate($fdate);
$ta = getdate($tdate);
// convert dates to number of months since 1900:
$fm = $fa["mon"] + (($fa["year"] - 1900) * 12);
$tm = $ta["mon"] + (($ta["year"] - 1900) * 12);
$em = $tm - $fm;
return intval($em/12);
}
