surely there's a query you can use to get the date out as you want it if it's stored as a date object thing?
Possibly. It was just a SELECT * though.

Is there a specific reason why you can't upgrade PHP? I've just tested the code on PHP 5 here on Windows and it works fine.
This is for a project which will be demoed, so they're using phpDev as a portable server type thingy, and that doesn't have a version with PHP 5.

If it's the easy PHP installation you're after, it's not all that hard to create your own set up routine for Apache and PHP.
Because it's a project that would have to be justified and explained and stuff - easier for them to say "I used this ready-made tool thing" or
whatever (especially since the deadline is in about 36 hours time.)
The software side of things doesn't have to work perfectly - since they can discuss anything that doesn't work in their writeup, so it's easier to just do that then worry too much about getting it working.
