The date format above is a standard mysql date/time format. If this is where you are getting that date from then your best method is probably to do the date conversion as part of your mysql query. You'll need to consult the mysql manual (chapter 6.something from memory) where it talks about stuff useful in select statements. Specifically, you're looking for DATE_FORMAT(). If your date is not coming from a database then you'll probably have to convert the date string you have to a unix timestamp and then use DATE() from there.
