DoB to age converter

[innaminit]

hey everyone. I'd like to be able to convert a users date of birth (from data
gathered from a form) into there age for use in my site, the member profile
page to be exact. at the moment i'd have to update their age manually but i
need this to be done via some sort of script of extension. I don't really know
the best way to go about this so i hope i'm asking in the right place! I've
just spent all evening getting pretty much nowhere by sifting through
javascript sites so if anyone has any idea's?

cheers

Are you storing this profile in a database?
skip JavaScript- store the birthdate, and do a calculation of the person's
age when retrieving it.

what flavor do you need? php? asp?
sample code for php-

look in the comments below the tech manual.

i'm not storing the profile in a database. I'm using html and javascript (via
the 'set text' behaviour in DW4) to make a profile appear in a layer when a
name is clicked ([url]http://3cmc.com/profiles.htm[/url] ). It's not a very efficient way
of doing it but as the site is part of a course in dreamweaver that doesn't
cover database use i'm stuck with it.

I want to add some javascript to the profile html so i can enter the DoB and
the code will change it to show the users age. If i can use any other code
(such as php) then great.
