I see some news items and blogs with posting dates in this format: Posted: [x] days ago I'm familiar with echoing date/time or date last_modified, but close review of date/time in the php manual and extensive Googling hasn't given me a clue as to how this is done. What's the answer? Examples: <http://www.textism.com/> <http://simon.incutio.com/> Thanks in advance, Rick.
