Re: [PHP] date calculation
Try:
$today = strtotime ("1 february 2003");
$enddate = strtotime ("2 february 2003");
$diff = $enddate - $today;
Should give you a clue!

Re: [PHP] date calculation
Yes, will be OK with all dates (though the valid range of a timestamp is
typically from Fri, 13 Dec 1901 20:45:54 GMT to Tue, 19 Jan 2038 03:14:07
GMT.)
The function you want for numeric dates is:
int mktime ( int hour, int minute, int second, int month, int day, int year)
so, in your example (1st Feb 2003):
$mydate = mktime(0,0,0,2,1,2003);

[PHP] Re: Default argument values
Yes, you can call your function with these arguments, but in this case of course the defaults will not be used because you have supplied arguments.
