Days difference

Ever wanted to know the number of days that have been passed since the beginning of this 2010 and the number of days passed since your birthday ?
Then try this code:

<?php
function noofdays($day_1,$day_2) {
$diff = strtotime($day_2) - strtotime($day_1) + 1; //Find the number of seconds
$day_difference = ceil($diff / (60*60*24)) ; //Find how many days that is
return $day_difference;
}

$bday='1985-06-18'; // My birthday, replace it with yours'
$day1=date("Y-01-01"); // Start date of current year
$day2=date("Y-m-d"); // Today's date


//$diff = strtotime($day2) - strtotime($day1) + 1; //Find the number of seconds
//echo ceil($diff / (60*60*24)) ; //Find how many days that is


$x= noofdays($day1,$day2);
$y= noofdays($bday,$day2);

echo 'No of days passed this year = '.$x;
echo '<br>';
echo 'No of days passed from my birthday till date = '.$y;
?>

dropdown menu over flash banner

It is often annoying in some browsers when the dropdown menu at the top of the flash banner is displayed at the back of the flash. It can be corrected with some minor changes in the flash embed code: 1. for embed tag, add wmode="transparent" 2. add param to the object tag: <param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
