hate to say this but why not cater for all eventualities and just use
strtotime( $whatever );
Well it just doesn't have enough geek factor...
Plus, strtotime() does non-intuitive things with some inputs...

I'd insist on at least some kind of confirmation page if you use that beast.

In the sites I write I have a lot of success with strtotime as long as
I have a - to / converter.  I also put a note of (Format date as
MM/DD/YYYY).  Funny that people still seem to want to type -'s.  We're
all creatures of habit, right?  There is always a way to edit stuff
though so it isn't the end of the world if it goes weird.

you know you could just change the input to a date selector / calender / 3 text boxes
