Here is a slightly modified example based on the above.
First we reformat the date to YYYYMMDD format.
Then for each date we compute the number of seconds since 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC (parameter %s of the date function)
Finally the result is divided by 86400 (number of seconds in a day).
=> 23
--date is an option of the GNU date and is not portable.
does anybody know how to find out the number of
days elapsed between 2 dates
e.g.
days elapsed between 020212 and 020110 (YYMMDD format)
Thanking you in advance.

RETURN VALUES
Returns the formatted interval.
NOTES
Note
The DateInterval::format method does not recalculate carry over points in time strings nor in date segments. This is expected
because it is not possible to overflow values like "32 days" which could be interpreted as anything from "1 month and 4 days" to "1
month and 1 day".
EXAMPLES
Example #1
DateInterval example
<?php
$interval = new DateInterval('P2Y4DT6H8M');
echo $interval->format('%d days');
?>
The above example will output:
4 days
Example #2
DateInterval and carry over points
<?php
$interval = new DateInterval('P32D');
echo $interval->format('%d days');
?>
The above example will output:
32 days
Example #3
DateInterval and DateTime::diff with the %a and %d modifiers
<?php
$january = new DateTime('2010-01-01');
$february = new DateTime('2010-02-01');
$interval = $february->diff($january);
// %a will output the total number of days.
echo $interval->format('%a total days')."
";
// While %d will only output the number of days not already covered by the
// month.
echo $interval->format('%m month, %d days');
?>
The above example will output:
31 total days
1 month, 0 days
