Converting Dates

[ramoneguru]

I am retrieving a date from mysql (using the mysql date format YYYY-MM-DD format). Is there an easy way to convert a date in that format:
YYYY-MM-DD
to this format:
MM-DD-YYYY

I've seen a few online, but they all involve ridiculous regular expressions....

Sorry I meant to post this in the PHP section

($y,$m,$d) = split(/\-/,$inDate);
$newdate = qq¦$m-$d-$y¦;

Or just restore it in the old variable

$inDate = qq¦$m-$d-$y¦;

Cool, Thanks.
