<?
function until( $date, $occasion = "birthday", $for = "my" )
{
	$unix = strtotime( $date );
	if(!$unix) :
		printf( "%s is not a valid date format", $date );
	else:
		printf("%d days till %s %s ( %s )", ( $unix - time() ) / 86400, $for, $occasion, date("dS F Y", $unix ) );
	endif;	
}
until( "18th March 2008"  );
    PHP:
    due to limitations of strtotime, you can't do dates that far in the future, but for birthdays it'll work.....
