Hi all, currently I have a form which prompts for the user to choose a date. The dropdown lists are stored into variables: $month //e.g. January, February, ... $day //e.g 1 - 31 $year //e.g. 2004 (four digits) then combined into $articleDate How can I manipulate this variable to be in such a format that I can insert the information into a DATE column in a mySQL database. Dates are a bit of a mystery to me as PHP and MySQL handle them differently. Your help is appreciated. Thanks
