Check for consecutive days in PHP

I have this code to check for consecutive dates in PHP:

$dates = "2017-02-26, 2017-02-27, 2017-03-01";
$dates = explode(',', $dates);

$conseq = array(); 
$ii = 0;
$max = count($dates);

for($i = 0; $i < count($dates); $i++) {
    $conseq[$ii][] = date('Y-m-d',$dates[$i]);

    if($i + 1 < $max) {
        $dif = $dates[$i + 1] - $dates[$i];
        if($dif >= 90000) {
            $ii++;
        }   
    }
}

print_r($dates);

The problem is this code do not make the work at 100%.

It should make one array with the consecutive days and another one for each separate days like this:

Array (
    [0] => 2017-02-26
    [1] => 2017-02-27
)
Array (
    [0] => 2017-03-01
)

Anyone to help me please.

Thanks.

You can put it in foreach loop something like this and then filter the array values by month.

$dates = "2017-02-26, 2017-02-27, 2017-03-01";
$date_arr = explode(',', $dates);
$filter = array();
foreach( $date_arr as $date ){
   $filter[date('m', strtotime($date))][] = $date; 
}
echo '<pre>'; print_r($filter);
