Answer 1

I changed one line of the above code for the case in which it was posted less than one minute ago.

    function ax_getRoughTimeElapsedAsText($iTime0, $iTime1 = 0)
    {
    if ($iTime1 == 0) { $iTime1 = time(); }
    $iTimeElapsed = $iTime1 - $iTime0;

    if ($iTimeElapsed < (60)) {
        return "Less than a minute ago";
    } else if ($iTimeElapsed < (60*60)) {
        $iNum = intval($iTimeElapsed / 60); $sUnit = "minute";
    } else if ($iTimeElapsed < (24*60*60)) {
        $iNum = intval($iTimeElapsed / (60*60)); $sUnit = "hour";
    } else if ($iTimeElapsed < (30*24*60*60)) {
        $iNum = intval($iTimeElapsed / (24*60*60)); $sUnit = "day";
    } else if ($iTimeElapsed < (365*24*60*60)) {
        $iNum = intval($iTimeElapsed / (30*24*60*60)); $sUnit = "month";
    } else {
        $iNum = intval($iTimeElapsed / (365*24*60*60)); $sUnit = "year";
    }

    return $iNum . " " . $sUnit . (($iNum != 1) ? "s" : "") . " ago";
    }
