I have stored in a db, pdate as mm/dd/yyyy and ptime as hh:mm:ss. I'd like to calculate and display the time lapse between the current system date/time and the pdate/ptime as in "posted # days, # hours # minutes ago". I've got some convoluted code where I change the date to days since and subtract those and then subtract the times. The days is no problem, however the hours is a problem if the ptime is a time ahead of the current time. I know this has come up before but the archives are crawling at the moment....
