It's just basic math. You divide by 86400 to get the days. You divide the remainder by 3600 to get the number of hours. Divide the remainder by 60 to get the number of minutes, etc.

got it!!!... i 1st tryed...

function time_elapsed_A($secs){    $bit = array(	    'y' => $secs / 31556926 % 12,	    'w' => $secs / 604800 % 52,	    'd' => $secs / 86400 % 7,	    'h' => $secs / 3600 % 24,	    'm' => $secs / 60 % 60,	    //'s' => $secs % 60	    );	      foreach($bit as $k => $v)	    if($v > 0)$ret[] = $v . $k;	      return join(' ', $ret);    }$nowtime = time();$dis_time_left = time_elapsed_A($dis_d_time_indb - $nowtime)."\n";

and i found a bug in this so i made...

$nowtime = time();$secs = ($dis_d_time_indb - $nowtime);$day_left = $secs / 86400 % 7;$hour_left = $secs / 3600 % 24;$min_left = $secs / 60 % 60;$dis_time_left = '' . $day_left .' D ' . $hour_left . ' H ' . $min_left . ' M '';

and this works for me 100% of the time thank you and please comment
