Resolved datetime difference caluculation for caluculatin SLA in time

[nani_nisha06]

HI All,

As subject line says,

from the below I could successfully calculate days in to hours, time but I am able to calculate getting in to Minutes using below code.

//to claculate SLA
$datetime1=$date1; //first date
$datetime2=$date2; //second date
		
		define("SECONDS_PER_HOUR", 24*60*60);
        // Calculate timestamp
		$start = strtotime($datetime1);
		$stop = strtotime($datetime2);
        // Diferences
		$difference = $stop - $start;
		// Hours
		$hours = round($difference / SECONDS_PER_HOUR, 0, PHP_ROUND_HALF_DOWN);
		$hourmul=($hours*24);

		// Minutes
		$minutes = ($difference/ SECONDS_PER_HOUR);
		$minmul= round(($minutes/60));
		// Seconds
		$seconds = ($difference % SECONDS_PER_HOUR) / 60;
		$secmul= round(($seconds/60));
		$var= $hourmul. ":" .$minmul. ":" .$secmul;

please help to complete this function my desire output should be, for example.

Start date = 05-11-2012 23:15:00
end date= 06-11-2012 01:15:00

output should be 2:00:00 of time.

can any one help me ???

Why not just use a DateInterval:

PHP Code:

date_default_timezone_set('UTC');

$dts = new DateTime('05-11-2012 23:15:00');
$dte = new DateTime('06-11-2012 01:15:00');

$di = $dte->diff($dts, true);
print $di->format('%H:%I:%S'); 


The object properties can be inspected as well to see what to show. If its <> 0, then its different in some way shape or form, so you can tack on things like years and months systematically this way.
