Let's say your two variables containing the seperate dates, which would be retrieved from a database query, are called $date1 and $date2. We will assume $date1 to be the more recent date.

Here is a basic way:

PHP Code:
$difference = round($date1 - $date2);
  $result= date('z \d\a\y\s, g \h\o\u\r\s, i \m\i\n\u\t\e\s, s \s\e\c\o\n\d\s',$difference); 
This will output the following:
Quote:
Z days, G hours, I minutes, S seconds
With the variables filled in appropriately.


Here is with months included:

PHP Code:
$difference = round($date1 - $date2);
  $result= date('n \m\o\n\t\h\s, j \d\a\y\s, g \h\o\u\r\s, i \m\i\n\u\t\e\s, s \s\e\c\o\n\d\s',$difference); 

And here is a more flexible way giving you to do whatever with each time variable:

PHP Code:
$difference = round($date1 - $date2);
$seconds= date('s',$difference);
$minutes= date('i',$difference);
$hours= date('g',$difference);
$days= date('j',$difference);      <-- note: days of month
$days = date('z',$difference);     <-- note: days in year
$months= date('n',$difference); 
Hope any of this helps ;)
