how to show a user's age?

Has anyone successfully accomplished this with Birthday module? Any guides would be helpfully. My intention is to valid an age on new user registrations.

I don't think the original post is to validate the user's age. The Birthday module just takes a profile field and use it to display the users age in a block.

If you're using computed

If you're using computed field, then you just have to do the math (see http://drupal.org/node/149228). Also, I don't remember if computed field works on the user registration page.

Well, i already found this. but its not very good documented.

Does the user has to customize any lines on this code which is here given?

http://drupal.org/node/149237

<?php
$birthday_date = date_make_date($node->field__[0]['value']);
$birthday = $birthday_date->db->parts;

//compute age
$bdayunix = mktime(0, 0, 0, $birthday['mon'], $birthday['mday'], $birthday['year']);
$nowunix = time();
$unixage = $nowunix - $bdayunix;
$age = floor($unixage/ (365 * 24 * 60 * 60));

$node_field[0]['value'] = $age;
?>

well, maybe you're doing something wrong, in the code above the field with the birthday it's "field__" I think that's the only thing you have to change. I never used that code but it doesn't seems to hard to understand.

$birthday_date = date_make_date($node->field_bday[0]['value']);
$birthday = $birthday_date->db->parts;

//compute age
$bdayunix = mktime(0, 0, 0, $birthday['mday'], $birthday['mon'], $birthday['year']);
$nowunix = time();
$unixage = $nowunix - $bdayunix;
$age = floor($unixage/ (365 * 24 * 60 * 60));

$node_field[0]['value'] = $age;

i changed it to the right field

She has a tutorial that will return the user's age.
Though, as a noob, I'm still working on including the birth date fields on the user's profile information...

Love to see what you figure out!
