By the way, ive been looking for a way to split payments via paypal and have found that it is currently not possible.

How do you guys suggest this work?

Hi blaine0002

You was looking for a way to find out the diffarence from 2 dates to show how many days left on your arction. well try this out

PHP Code:

function daysDiff($y1, $m1, $d1) {
$y2 = date("Y");
$m2 = date("m");
$d2 = date("d");

if (mktime(0,0,0,$m1,$d1,$y1) - mktime(0,0,0,date("m"),date("d"),date("Y"))<0) {
$diff = "expiried";
} else {
$y = $y1 - $y2;
$m = $m1 - $m2;
$d = $d1 - $d2;
$daysInMonth = date("t",$m1);
if ($d<0) {$m--;$d=$d+$daysInMonth;}
if ($m<0) {$y--;$m=$m+12;}

if ($y>0) $diff .= $y==1 ? "1 year " : "$y years ";
if ($m>0) $diff .= $m==1? "1 month and " : "$m months and ";
if ($d>0) $diff .= $d==1 ? "1 day " : "$d days ";
$diff .= " remaining";
}
return $diff;
}
print "<br>";
print daysDiff(2007,12,25); 


Or you could try this out

PHP Code:

$today1 = strtotime ('now');
$today=date("d.m.Y",$today1);
$f_date1 = mktime(0,0,0,12,24,2007);
$f_date=date("d.m.Y",$f_date1);
$difference = intval(($f_date1 - $today1)/86400+1);

//output

echo"Today is : $today<br>";
echo"Your date : $f_date<br>";
echo"Days To Go Before Christmas : $difference"; 


Hope this helps you out

Hehe i found that out a LONG time ago
But thanks for helping


Good to see you again though, havent seen you in a long time.

[Blaine0002]

The next version will probably be a bugfix version.
The version after im thinking will include itrader integration and more features and MIGHT be commercial if i can get the correct resources together.

Take a slice of the action by having a percentage of all sales sent to your PayPal account

It's on my site here:
