Up it does. Kept it as simple as possible as the op stated it could only
be today or yesterday: hence not a month difference etc.

Then again this will be up for it when the difference _can_ run longer
indeed.

I'm sorry, I didn't understand the specs and my code contains a huge
type that makes it useless; $end should be;

$end = mktime(0, 0, 0, date('n', time()), date('j', time())+1, date('Y',
time()));

Anyway, I hope it can at least give some ideas...
