使用这个简单的函数。声明函数

<?php
function dateDiff($firstDate,$secondDate){
    $firstDate = strtotime($firstDate);
    $secondDate = strtotime($secondDate);

    $datediff = $firstDate - $secondDate;
    $output = round($datediff / (60 * 60 * 24));
    return $output;
}
?>

像这样调用这个函数

<?php
    echo dateDiff("2018-01-01","2018-12-31");    

// OR

    $firstDate = "2018-01-01";
    $secondDate = "2018-01-01";
    echo dateDiff($firstDate,$secondDate);    
?>

如果你有以秒为单位的时间(即unix时间戳)，那么你可以简单地减去时间并除以86400(秒/天)

最简单的方法来找出两个日期之间的天数差

$date1 = strtotime("2019-05-25"); 
$date2 = strtotime("2010-06-23");

$date_difference = $date2 - $date1;

$result =  round( $date_difference / (60 * 60 * 24) );

echo $result;

将日期转换为unix时间戳，然后从另一个时间戳中减去一个日期。这将得到以秒为单位的差值，然后除以86400(一天中的秒数)，得到该范围内的大约天数。

如果你的日期格式为25.1.2010,01/25/2010或2010-01-25，你可以使用strtotime函数:

$start = strtotime('2010-01-25');
$end = strtotime('2010-02-20');

$days_between = ceil(abs($end - $start) / 86400);

使用ceil将天数四舍五入到下一个全天。如果您希望获得这两个日期之间的完整天数，则使用floor。

如果日期已经是unix时间戳格式，则可以跳过转换，只执行$days_between部分。对于更奇特的日期格式，您可能必须进行一些自定义解析以使其正确。

如果你想在开始日期和结束日期之间重复所有的日子，我想出了这个:

$startdatum = $_POST['start']; // starting date
$einddatum = $_POST['eind']; // end date

$now = strtotime($startdatum);
$your_date = strtotime($einddatum);
$datediff = $your_date - $now;
$number = floor($datediff/(60*60*24));

for($i=0;$i <= $number; $i++)
{
    echo date('d-m-Y' ,strtotime("+".$i." day"))."<br>";
}

我阅读了所有以前的解决方案，没有一个使用PHP 5.3工具:DateTime::Diff和DateInterval::Days

DateInterval::Days精确地包含日期之间的天数。没有必要创造一些特别和奇异的东西。
