Re: Countdown with php ?

[ddliu]

I agree with @TheDoc, at least you have to get user data from database(including when will the account expire).

Assuming you have got it and put it into a PHP variable “$expiration” and the format is UNIX timestamp.

So next you can use $expiration to calculate useful infomation:

1. Get the expiration date:

echo "Your account will be expired on ".date('m/d/Y',$expiration);

The output will be something like:
Your account will be expired on 06/01/2012

Read PHP manual to get more information on date: http://php.net/manual/en/function.date.php

2. Get datetime differenc

$diffSecs=$expiration-time();

...//continue with your countdown script...
