php将日期格式转换成xx天前的格式

这段代码可以把时间格式化成3天前，5秒前，2年前的形式

// convert a date into a string that tells how long ago
// that date was.... eg: 2 days ago, 3 minutes ago.
function ago($d) {
 $c = getdate();
 $p = array('year', 'mon', 'mday', 'hours', 'minutes', 'seconds');
 $display = array('year', 'month', 'day', 'hour', 'minute', 'second');
 $factor = array(0, 12, 30, 24, 60, 60);
 $d = datetoarr($d);
 for ($w = 0; $w <6; $w++) {
 if ($w > 0) {
  $c[$p[$w]] += $c[$p[$w-1]] * $factor[$w];
  $d[$p[$w]] += $d[$p[$w-1]] * $factor[$w];
 }
 if ($c[$p[$w]] - $d[$p[$w]] > 1) { 
  return ($c[$p[$w]] - $d[$p[$w]]).' '.$display[$w].'s ago';
 }
 }
 return '';
}
// you can replace this if need be. 
// This converts my dates returned from a mysql date string 
// into an array object similar to that returned by getdate().
function datetoarr($d) {
 preg_match("/([0-9]{4})(\\-)([0-9]{2})(\\-)([0-9]{2})([0-9]{2})(\\:)([0-9]{2})(\\:)([0-9]{2})/",$d,$matches);
 return array( 
 'seconds' => $matches[10], 
 'minutes' => $matches[8], 
 'hours' => $matches[6], 
 'mday' => $matches[5], 
 'mon' => $matches[3], 
 'year' => $matches[1], 
 );
}
