The easiest and my preferred way is to use "strtotim" method. This method accepts MySQL format "2002-12-23" and converts it into a UNIX time stamp. After that you can use the date function to format time as you wish!

I'm having a difficult time figuring out how to reconcile the date in MySQL so it works with PHP's various date commands, like getdate().
Any suggestions? I'll mostly need to compared dates/times of different records and then extract parts of the date for displaying on the screen. Thanks!
