copied!<p>Made some assumptions and had to write it in C#, but this version of the code gives me 2 months for August 31 and 3 months for August 9</p> <pre><code> public static string ToDuration(DateTime dt, string suffixAgo) { string output; DateTime theDate; if (dt == null) { output = "now"; } else { theDate = dt; TimeSpan DateInterval = DateTime.Now - theDate; int SecondsAppart = Convert.ToInt32(Math.Floor(DateInterval.TotalSeconds)); if ((SecondsAppart < 86400)) { if (SecondsAppart < 59) output = ("less than a minute " + suffixAgo); else if (SecondsAppart < 119) output = ("about a minute " + suffixAgo); else if (SecondsAppart < 3599) output = string.Format("{0} minutes {1}", Math.Floor(DateInterval.TotalMinutes), suffixAgo); else if (SecondsAppart < 7199) output = "about an hour " + suffixAgo; else output = string.Format("{0} hours {1}", Math.Floor(DateInterval.TotalHours), suffixAgo); } else { int DaysAppart = Convert.ToInt32(DateInterval.TotalDays); if (DaysAppart <= 1) output = "yesterday"; else if (DaysAppart < 30) output = string.Format("{0} days {1}", Math.Floor(DateInterval.TotalDays), suffixAgo); else if (DaysAppart < 60) output = "about a month " + suffixAgo; else if (DaysAppart < 365) output = string.Format("{0} months {1}", Math.Floor(DateInterval.TotalDays/30), suffixAgo); else if (DaysAppart < 730) output = ("about a year " + suffixAgo); else output = string.Format("{0} year {1}", Math.Floor(DateInterval.TotalDays/365), suffixAgo); } } return output; } </code></pre> <p>I've updated the code and I think you have the results you're expecting now. Hopefuly this will help.</p> <p>Cheers, Wagner.</p>
