That is very unclear on what you are trying to do.... Are you trying to show a calculation on how many days a person has been a member?

your going about this the wrong way, firstly when the person signs up, you need to use the microtime function, this will give you a time based on how many seconds since 1970

so you will have a number like 231546231316 (jibberish), ok, save this in the database with the users username and password,

ok, now that you have done that, you need to do something really easy,


when you need to figure out how many days, get the microtime in the datbase, lets call it $regTime for the registration time

then, you need something like this
PHP Code:
 $currTime = microtime();

$time = $currTime - $regTime; //this will give you how many seconds since they registered.

$time = ceil($time / 60 / 60 / 24); // this will give you the days since signing up.

echo $time 


thats all you need to do. And that is the most easiest way to do it as well.
