Hii,

    Parse it and put it back together again and then reformat it.
    Try this function for the first part:
    PHP: date_parse_from_format - Manual
    and read this for the rest
    PHP: date_format - Manual

    function ChangeFormat($InputDate){

    $TheDate=explode("/",$InputDate);
    $TheDay=$TheDate[0];
    $TheMonth=$TheDate[1];
    $TheYear=$TheDate[2];

    if (strlen($TheMonth)<2) $TheMonth="0".$TheMonth;
    if (strlen($TheDay)<2) $TheDay="0".$TheDay;

    return "$TheYear-$TheMonth-$TheDay";
    } //ChangeFormat Ends

    $IniDate="18/4/2013";
    echo "Inital date is: $IniDate and Ending date format is: ".ChangeFormat($IniDate);


    I hope this helps
