// Calculate difference and returns the difference in days.
function bozimsDateDiff($date1, $date2)
{
 return floor(($date2 - $date1) / (3600 * 24));
}

// Usage
$date2 = time(); // e,g Date 2 CURRENT DATE TIMESTAMP
$date1 = mktime(0,0,0,1,17,1988); // e,g Date 1 My Birthday date timestamp
 
//diff in days
$days = bozimsDateDiff($date1, $date2);
//diff in hours
$hours = $days*24;
//diff in minutes
$minutes = $hours * 60;

//Display
echo "Days : " . $days;
echo "<br>";
echo "Hours : " . $hours;
echo "<br>";
echo "Minutes : " . $minutes;
