这是我的改进版本，显示1年2月25天(s)，如果通过第二个参数。

class App_Sandbox_String_Util {
    /**
     * Usage: App_Sandbox_String_Util::getDateDiff();
     * @param int $your_date timestamp
     * @param bool $hr human readable. e.g. 1 year(s) 2 day(s)
     * @see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2040560/finding-the-number-of-days-between-two-dates
     * @see http://qSandbox.com
     */
    static public function getDateDiff($your_date, $hr = 0) {
        $now = time(); // or your date as well
        $datediff = $now - $your_date;
        $days = floor( $datediff / ( 3600 * 24 ) );

        $label = '';

        if ($hr) {
            if ($days >= 365) { // over a year
                $years = floor($days / 365);
                $label .= $years . ' Year(s)';
                $days -= 365 * $years;
            }

            if ($days) {
                $months = floor( $days / 30 );
                $label .= ' ' . $months . ' Month(s)';
                $days -= 30 * $months;
            }

            if ($days) {
                $label .= ' ' . $days . ' day(s)';
            }
        } else {
            $label = $days;
        }

        return $label;
    }
}

看看所有的答案，我写了一个通用函数，适用于所有的PHP版本。

if(!function_exists('date_between')) :
    function date_between($date_start, $date_end)
    {
        if(!$date_start || !$date_end) return 0;

        if( class_exists('DateTime') )
        {
            $date_start = new DateTime( $date_start );
            $date_end   = new DateTime( $date_end );
            return $date_end->diff($date_start)->format('%a');
        }
        else
        {           
            return abs( round( ( strtotime($date_start) - strtotime($date_end) ) / 86400 ) );
        }
    }
endif;

一般来说，我使用“DateTime”来查找两个日期之间的天数。但如果出于某种原因，一些服务器设置没有启用'DateTime'，它将使用'strtotime()'简单(但不安全)计算。

从PHP 5.3及以上版本开始，添加了新的日期/时间函数来获得不同:

$datetime1 = new DateTime("2010-06-20");

$datetime2 = new DateTime("2011-06-22");

$difference = $datetime1->diff($datetime2);

echo 'Difference: '.$difference->y.' years, ' 
                   .$difference->m.' months, ' 
                   .$difference->d.' days';

print_r($difference);

结果如下:

Difference: 1 years, 0 months, 2 days

DateInterval Object
(
    [y] => 1
    [m] => 0
    [d] => 2
    [h] => 0
    [i] => 0
    [s] => 0
    [invert] => 0
    [days] => 367
)

希望能有所帮助!

使用这个简单的函数。声明函数

<?php
function dateDiff($firstDate,$secondDate){
    $firstDate = strtotime($firstDate);
    $secondDate = strtotime($secondDate);

    $datediff = $firstDate - $secondDate;
    $output = round($datediff / (60 * 60 * 24));
    return $output;
}
?>

像这样调用这个函数

<?php
    echo dateDiff("2018-01-01","2018-12-31");    

// OR

    $firstDate = "2018-01-01";
    $secondDate = "2018-01-01";
    echo dateDiff($firstDate,$secondDate);    
?>

    // Change this to the day in the future
$day = 15;

// Change this to the month in the future
$month = 11;

// Change this to the year in the future
$year = 2012;

// $days is the number of days between now and the date in the future
$days = (int)((mktime (0,0,0,$month,$day,$year) - time(void))/86400);

echo "There are $days days until $day/$month/$year";

这个工作!

$start = strtotime('2010-01-25');
$end = strtotime('2010-02-20');

$days_between = ceil(abs($end - $start) / 86400);
