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。

    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)';

            if ($days) {

                $label .= ' ' . $months . ' Month(s)';
                $days -= 30 * $months;

$early_start_date = date2sql($_POST['early_leave_date']);


$date = new DateTime($early_start_date);
$date->modify('+1 day');


$date_a = new DateTime($early_start_date . ' ' . $_POST['start_hr'] . ':' . $_POST['start_mm']);
$date_b = new DateTime($date->format('Y-m-d') . ' ' . $_POST['end_hr'] . ':' . $_POST['end_mm']);

$time = $interval->format('%h:%i');
$parsed = date_parse($time);
$seconds = $parsed['hour'] * 3600 + $parsed['minute'] * 60;
//        display_error($seconds);

$second3 = $employee_information['shift'] * 60 * 60;

if ($second3 < $seconds)
    display_error(_('Leave time can not be greater than shift time.Please try again........'));
    set_focus('start_hr');
    set_focus('end_hr');
    return FALSE;
}

尝试使用碳

$d1 = \Carbon\Carbon::now()->subDays(92);
$d2 = \Carbon\Carbon::now()->subDays(10);
$days_btw = $d1->diffInDays($d2);

你也可以用

\Carbon\Carbon::parse('')

使用给定的时间戳字符串创建一个Carbon date对象。

<?php
$date1=date_create("2013-03-15");
$date2=date_create("2013-12-12");
$diff=date_diff($date1,$date2);
echo $diff->format("%R%a days");
?>

上面的代码用的很简单。谢谢。

出于类似的目的，我在我的作曲项目中使用Carbon。

就像这样简单:

$dt = Carbon::parse('2010-01-01');
echo $dt->diffInDays(Carbon::now());

面向对象的风格:

$datetime1 = new DateTime('2009-10-11');
$datetime2 = new DateTime('2009-10-13');
$interval = $datetime1->diff($datetime2);
echo $interval->format('%R%a days');

程序上的风格:

$datetime1 = date_create('2009-10-11');
$datetime2 = date_create('2009-10-13');
$interval = date_diff($datetime1, $datetime2);
echo $interval->format('%R%a days');
