In mySql you have date_format which I think´ll solve your problem.

Well I was going along smoothly from this morning....but it came down to
having to change the field type to date in the mySQL..so now I have this
which returns a scraped value formatted like this 0/00/00 m/d/y

 $inDate = $results[3][$i];

Which date function can I use to format for the db so that I will be able to
use range references...there are so many get_date, date_modify....I'm
lost...

My full code is this:

preg_match_all('/<p><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica,
sans-serif">(.+)<br>(.+)<br>.+(\d+\/\d+\/\d+)\s(.+)<br>(.+)<br>.+Critical
Violations Found:.+(\d+)(.+)Noncritical Violations Found:.+(\d+)/imsSU',
utf8_encode($url), $results);



for ($i=0; $i < count($results[0]); $i++)
{
    $name1 = strtolower($results[1][$i]);

    $name =
ltrim($name1);

    $address = strtolower($results[2][$i]);

    $inDate
= $results[3][$i];

    $inType = $results[4][$i];

    $notes =
trim($results[5][$i]);

    $critical = trim($results[6][$i]);


$cviolations = $results[7][$i];

    $noncritical = $results[8][$i];

    //trying to manipulate different field data

    $cleanViolations =
str_replace('*', '', $cviolations);
    $ucName = ucwords($name);

$ucAddress = ucwords($address);


    $mysql_name =
mysql_escape_string($ucName);
    $mysql_address =
mysql_escape_string($ucAddress);
    $mysql_inDate =
mysql_escape_string($inDate);
    $mysql_inType =
mysql_escape_string($inType);
    $mysql_notes =
mysql_escape_string($notes);
    $mysql_critical =
mysql_escape_string($critical);
    $mysql_cviolations =
mysql_escape_string($cleanViolations);
    $mysql_noncritical =
mysql_escape_string($noncritical);

        echo "$ucName <br>";

echo "$ucAddress <br>";
        echo "$inDate <br>";
        echo "$inType
<br>";
        echo "$notes <br>";
        echo "$critical <br>";

//echo "$cviolations <br>";
        echo "$cleanViolations <br>";

echo "$noncritical <br><hr>";
