• Difference in Months between two dates in JavaScript & PHP


    Sometimes you may want to get just the quantity of the months between two dates totally ignoring the day part. So for instance, if you had two dates- 2013/06/21 and 2013/10/18- and you only cared about the 2013/06 and 2013/10 parts, here are the scenarios and possible solutions:
    var date1=new Date(2013,5,21);//Remember, months are 0 based in JS
    var date2=new Date(2013,9,18);
    var year1=date1.getFullYear();
    var year2=date2.getFullYear();
    var month1=date1.getMonth();
    var month2=date2.getMonth();
    if(month1===0){ //Have to take into account
      month1++;
      month2++;
    }
    var numberOfMonths; 
    1.If you want just the number of the months between the two dates excluding both month1 and month2
    numberOfMonths = (year2 - year1) * 12 + (month2 - month1) - 1;
    2.If you want to include either of the months
    numberOfMonths = (year2 - year1) * 12 + (month2 - month1);
    3.If you want to include both of the months
    numberOfMonths = (year2 - year1) * 12 + (month2 - month1) + 1;

    PHP

    $startmonth=May-2019;
    $endmonth=May-2019;
    $start_date=date('Y-m-d', strtotime($startmonth));
    $end_date=date('Y-m-t', strtotime($endmonth));
        
    $ts1 = strtotime($start_date);
    $ts2 = strtotime($end_date);
    
    $year1 = date('Y', $ts1);
    $year2 = date('Y', $ts2);
    
    $month1 = date('m', $ts1);
    $month2 = date('m', $ts2);
    
    $numberOfMonths = (($year2 - $year1) * 12) + (($month2 - $month1)+1);
