You may want to try:

$result = mysql_query("SELECT title, description, url, author,
date_format(datefield, '%M %D %Y') AS datefield FROM documents");

You can also do

$result = mysql_query("SELECT title, description, url, author,
unix_timestamp(datefield) AS datefield FROM documents");

then use php's date() function.
