The easiest method is just to convert them to UNIX timestamps and subtract. That will give you the difference between the 2 in seconds, and then you can just divide by the number of seconds in whatever time span you want. For example:
php

$ts2 = strtotime($d2);
$ts3 = strtotime($d3);
# Subtract and divide by 3600 seconds/hour
$hour_diff = ($d2 - $d3) / 3600;
