How do I easily turn this date into separate variables?

It sounds easy. I’ve done it before, but when I browse the web for a solution, I turn up nothing.

I have a string like this: 04/07/2012

I want to turn this into a month, day, and year variable. How do I do that?

Thanks,
M

[code=php]<?php
// Delimiters may be slash, dot, or hyphen
$date = "04/30/1973";
list($month, $day, $year) = split('[/.-]', $date);
echo "Month: $month; Day: $day; Year: $year<br />n";
?>[/code]


That took some searching.

Success!
