I'm not sure why you need it, but, time() return how many seconds have passed since January 1 1970 00:00:00 GMT.

If you want to know how many days have passed since a particular time() you saved before, then you should subtract the time() you saved earlier, from the the time() now.

 

Then a little math:

60 seconds = 1 minute

60 minutes = 1 hour

24 hours = 1 day

time() is changed every second with +1.

 

60 seconds in 1 minute

60 minutes in 1 hour

24 hours in 1 day

 

So 60 x 60 x 24 = 86400 seconds in 1 day

 

Hope you need it?
