Calculate the age using data from my database

Question

This is the code I\'m currently using, but it\'s not working. Geboortedatum means day of birth in Dutch.

mysql_connect(\'xxx\', \'xxx\', \'xxx\');

mysql_select_         


        

Answer 1

Here's an approach if you want a breakdown by years, months, and Days:

$secondsInAYear     = 31536000;
$secondsInAMonth    =  2635200; //Using the average (30.5) days in a month.
$secondsInADay      =    86400;


echo $datum;
$birthDate = strtotime($datum);

$ageInSeconds   = time() - $birthDate;

$ageInYears = floor( $ageInSeconds / $secondsInAYear );
$ageRemainder   = ( $ageInSeconds % $secondsInAYear );          // $a % $b  [ Modulus:  Remainder of $a divided by $b ]     

$ageInMonths    = floor( $ageRemainder / $secondsInAMonth );
$monthsRemainder    = ( $ageRemainder % $secondsInAMonth );

$ageInDays      = floor( $monthsRemainder / $secondsInAMonth );    

echo "Age is:" .$ageInYears ." Years, " .$ageInMonths ." Months, and " .$ageInDays ." Days.;
