Just FYI, strtotime() provides date/time validation for free - check the
input using strtotime() and date('Y-m-d H:i:s') to get it in the form you
want.
An alternate, simpler PCRE would be:
'/\d{4}-\d{2}-\d{2} \d{2}:\d{2}:\d{2}/'
Though note that unlike strtotime(), it won't tell you whether the date is
illegal.
