of just, building from your code :
$Date = '2003-03-03'; // dates should be "complete"
$Year = substr($Date,0,4); // GetYear($Date); // yields 2003
$Month = substr($Date,5,2); // GetMonth($Date);
$Day = substr($Date,8,2); // GetDay($Date);
or (better and that can cope with your existing code) :
$Date = '2003-3-3';
$zarbi=explode('-',$Date);
$Year = $zarbi[0]; // GetYear($Date); // yields 2003
$Month = $zarbi[1];
$Day = $zarbi[2];
