    <p>I am using a function (found it on the web) that calculates the time that has passed until now. I am passing two parameters: post date and current date. it will return years, months, days, hours, minutes OR seconds. it uses PHP 5.3's date diff function which won't do in version 5.2 :(</p> <pre><code>function pluralize( $zaehler, $inhalt ) { return trim($zaehler . ( ( $zaehler == 1 ) ? ( " $inhalt" ) : ( " ${inhalt}s" ) )." ago");}function ago($datetime, $datetime_post){ $interval = date_create($datetime_post)-&gt;diff( date_create($datetime) ); if ( $interval-&gt;y &gt;= 1 ) return pluralize( $interval-&gt;y, 'year' ); if ( $interval-&gt;m &gt;= 1 ) return pluralize( $interval-&gt;m, 'month' ); if ( $interval-&gt;d &gt;= 1 ) return pluralize( $interval-&gt;d, 'day' ); if ( $interval-&gt;h &gt;= 1 ) return pluralize( $interval-&gt;h, 'hour' ); if ( $interval-&gt;i &gt;= 1 ) return pluralize( $interval-&gt;i, 'minute' ); if ( $interval-&gt;s &gt;= 1 ) return pluralize( $interval-&gt;s, 'second' );} </code></pre> <p>example:</p> <pre><code>$post_date_time = "01/01/2012 11:30:22"; $current_date_time = "02/02/2012 07:35:41"; echo ago($current_date_time, $post_date_time); </code></pre> <p>will output:</p> <pre><code>1 month </code></pre> <p>Now I need a equivalent function "ago" that would just do the same, depending on the $interval object.</p> <p>thank you so much</p> <p>Additional Info: None of the provided solutions actually did what I was looking for. I have to improve my explaining, sorry. At the end, I need only the $interval object to be having this:</p> <pre><code>object(DateInterval)#3 (8) { ["y"]=&gt; int(0) ["m"]=&gt; int(1) ["d"]=&gt; int(0) ["h"]=&gt; int(20) ["i"]=&gt; int(5) ["s"]=&gt; int(19) ["invert"]=&gt; int(0) ["days"]=&gt; int(6015) } </code></pre> <p>The no need to change so many things.</p>

    2. COAlso, you can get the current date time using PHP's `date( ... )` function in case you didn't know: http://php.net/manual/en/function.date.php

    3. COIt is very easy to get the difference of two dates, in seconds. Converting seconds to hours, minutes and days is trivial. Converting to months and years... that easy if you assume that every month is 30 days long and every year has 12 30-day months. Is this solution acceptable?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
