[PHP] Problem!

[Fredrik Arild Takle]

1.
$date = "20010101";

How could I output 01 01 2001 (or make it 3 variables, like day, month, year)?

2.
What is the best way to encrypt (using PHP and MySQL)?

Could you please answer me directly by mailadr. ([EMAIL PROTECTED]), because I'm 
currently not a member of this list at home!
