Hey Fabri,

I cannot replicate this bug (PHP 4.2.3 on older server). I'm only
getting one file written. What version of PHP are you using?

Hi Chris,
thanks for your feedback: at least now I know that the script is correct, I
am using version 4.3.10, I will investigate if some bug is present in this
version.

I read your email, but I'm not using sessions and not really planning too.
But some of your code may be able to be modified to do what I need.

Thanks for the input.

Hi. If you re-read my reponse you will see that it uses preg_replace with
the i flag which ignores case and will match banned words within words. With
a little modification (I can help if you like) you can easily use it in your
case.

         Yes, right on the spot. Main reasons being code theft and
using it on other projects. This being done by our office (its
actually a college and i work in a multimedia department) system
administrators, which are nothing left than arrogant leaches.

         All i was missing from your suggestion was the fact that i
would need to have my files remotely hosted and not using the .php
extension. Great help, thanks.

If your sysadmins are trying to steal the code, all they'd have to do is
download the same code your local scripts refer to
(http://server/code.php.txt)...Seems to me that you might be better off
using an encoder of some kind so they don't get their hands on the
source. Using what I suggested is in no way secure or fast.

Greetings Gents,

I want to take two dates formatted as
11/1/1998
10/1/2008

And find out how many months have elapsed between them.
I was wondering if there was a quick and dirty way to do this without a for
loop.

The House has passed a law that would abandon the Internet's First Amendment
-- a principle called Network Neutrality that prevents companies like AT&T,
Verizon and Comcast from deciding which Web sites work best for you -- based
on what site pays them the most. If the public doesn't speak up now, our
elected officials will cave to a multi-million dollar lobbying campaign.
Please contaxct your Senators to defeat this bill in the Senate.

attached mail follows:

I will assume that your dates are stored in two variables $date1 and $date2

<code>
$date1array = explode("/",$date1);
$date2array = explode("/",$date2);

// Assume Date 2 is later than Date 1

$months_apart = ($date2array[2] - $date1array[2])*12;

// Month is later in date 1 than in date 2
// Find the difference of months
if( $date1array[0] > $date2array[0] )
{
        $months_apart -= $date1array[0] - $date2array[0];
}
else
{
        $months_apart += $date2array[0] - $date1array[0];
}

// $months_apart should now contain months apart
</code>

And there is your quick and dirty method,
I haven't really debugged it, but I am pretty sure that should work.
Some (int) casting my be necessary, but I think PHP will automatically
do that for you.

Good luck,
Kyle
