Dear All,
I was wondering if there are any major date function changes between php4 and
5.
When I say date function I mean mktime() , date() ,strtotime() etc.
Here is my dilemma, I've upgraded from php4 to php5. there is some very old
legacy code that is not working correctly.
Specifically

Hello Bruce,
While the date functions are well documented - http://php.net/date - here is a
little example to manipulate the date with php, rather than mysql:
// set the new expiry date
// DATE FUNCTIONS FOR THE EXPIRY MODULE
// first perform date arithmetic
$listingExpiry = mktime

Depending on your database engine (which you didn't mention in your
post), some allow you to format the date however you want it as you pull
it out of the database in your sql query. I always find this to be the
easiest way to do it. That way you don't have to worry about formatting
the data

Off the top of my head... Convert both date1 and date2 to unix timestamps,
and subtract one from the other. That will give you the number of seconds
between them. Then, convert to hours, minutes, etc as required.

You should be working with UNIX timestamps here. Convert the dates to human
readble only after you've done the calcuations.
