需要在JQuery中计算两个日期之间的月份

Question

I need to count total no of months between the two dates in months and years if not just months either any php snippet or ether js or jquery.

I display the data from backend using php tags {{ $job->job_start_date }} job_start_date is for start date and {{ $job->job_expiry_date }}) job_expiry_date is for end date.

I get my output as in this format 13-Oct-2016. I tried this thing putting the values as hidden but couldn't get it work with parsing properly while adding new Date() to them

$(document).ready(function(){
    var sDate = $("#monthStart").val();
    var nDate = $("#monthEnd").val();

    var sd = new Date(sDate );
    var ed = new Date(nDate );
    ed.setDate(ed.getDate() - sd.getDate());
    alert(monthDiff(sd,ed));
});


function monthDiff(d1, d2) {
    var months;
    months = (d2.getFullYear() - d1.getFullYear()) * 12;
    months -= d1.getMonth() + 1;
    months += d2.getMonth();
    return months <= 0 ? 0 : months;
}

need a easy solution in js jquery or php.

Answer 1

function differenceInMonths($startDate, $endDate)
{
    $date1 = new DateTime($startDate);
    $date2 = new DateTime($endDate);

    $interval = date_diff($date1, $date2);

    return $interval->m + ($interval->y * 12) . ' months';
}

This way you get no. of months. Now you can calculate years if months >= 11.
