Well, I had the right idea... John is just more advance than me. :o)

Since those look like MySQL timestamps, I would suggest you do it in your
query.

SELECT TO_DAYS(column1) - TO_DAYS(column2) AS Difference FROM table

Adapt to your needs.

Explain what your overall mission is and there is probably a query that'll
return just that.

If you want to use PHP, format those timestamps into something strtotime()
will convert to a unix timestamp, find the difference in seconds, and
convert the number of seconds into days.
