What kind of format are you looking for?

$day = $_POST['day'];
$month = $_POST['month'];
$year = $_POST['year'];

$date = $day."/".$month."/".$year;

echo $date; would give you something like this 12/6/1976

$makingtime = date("F j, Y", mktime(0, 0, 0, $day, $month, $year));
//This would give you something like December 6, 1976
