I guess.
Are you telling me that I should take the timestamp, convert it to epoch time, the us the time function to get the current epoch time, then subtract the timestamp epoch time from the current epoch time? I think that is what you are saying.
I know I can get the current epoch time in php with time(). How do I convert the timestamp in the database to epoch time, or find the epoch time in bash? If I can't do it in either, then I am subtracting apples from oranges.

I can could also put the date and time that the script was ran into the MySql database by have a TIMESTAMP field in the database. [/snip]
You can use that to convert your time in the DB, get the current time when seeking as epoch time, subtract one from the other....no?
