Is there an easy way to calculate the number of days between two dates?

Example: 2008-02-27 - 2007-12-03 = 86 days

The dates will be in the format above YYYY-MM-DD

This should do the trick

<?php

$date1 = '2008-02-27';
$date2 = '2007-12-03';

$udate1 = strtotime($date1);
$udate2 = strtotime($date2);

$factor = 86400;


$difference = (($udate1 - $udate2) / $factor);

echo "The difference is {$difference} days";
