php time difference script problem
<p>here is my php code.....</p>

<pre><code>&lt;?php
function nicetime($date)
{
    if(empty($date)) {
        return "No date provided";
    }

    $periods         = array("second", "minute", "hour", "day", "week", "month", "year", "decade");
    $lengths         = array("60","60","24","7","4.35","12","10");

    $now             = time();
    $unix_date  = strtotime($date);

       // check validity of date
    if(empty($unix_date)) {    
        return "Incorrect Date";
    }

    // is it future date or past date
    if($now &gt; $unix_date) {    
        $difference     = $now - $unix_date;
        $tense         = "ago";

    } else {
        $difference     = $unix_date - $now;
        $tense         = "ago";
    }

    for($j = 0; $difference &gt;= $lengths[$j] &amp;&amp; $j &lt; count($lengths)-1; $j++) {
        $difference /= $lengths[$j];
    }

    $difference = round($difference);

    if($difference != 1) {
        $periods[$j].= "s";
    }

    return "$difference $periods[$j] {$tense}";
}
?&gt;
