If you subtract one date from another it will give you the difference in
days.

Subject: [javascript_howto] Date Difference Calculation


I need to find the difference in years if more than 1 or days if less than 
1 year between two dates. The user enters an effective date and an 
expiration date. I then need to calculate the term, which is the 
expiration date minus the effective date.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
