The difference? Assuming that you have two date time strings(or objects, but objects cannot come directly from post vars so I assume its formatted string like xx:yy am|pm), you can do the following:


$mytimein = new DateTime($_POST['tmestart']);
$mytimeout = new DateTime($_POST['tmeend']; );
$mytimediff = $mytimeout->diff($mytimein);
echo $mytimediff->format("h:i");

Hi,

There will be no output


     $mytimein = new DateTime('7:00am');
   $mytimeout = new DateTime('11:00am');
   $mytimediff = $mytimeout->diff($mytimein);
   echo $mytimediff->format("h:i");

Do you receive an error message? If its a blank page, check your error log to see where the error may be.
