php-take 2 dates and find out the rest of the dates in between with do-while loop

Category: technical

Tags: between, date, php

need a way to find all the dates in between? well this currently works with months. but can be adjusted to do days, years, etc. all you need to do is supply a begining date and an end date. it returns an array which can be used for anything,

function between_dates($begin_date, $end_date) {

    $t = date("Y-m",strtotime($begin_date));

    $i=0;

    do {

    $my[$i] = date("F Y", (strtotime("{$end_date} +$i months")));

    $mys = date("Y-m", (strtotime("{$end_date} +$i months")));

    $i++;

    }

    while($mys < $t);

    return $my;

}
