But this solution didnt work
But this solution didnt work for dates before 1.1.1970.
I am using PHP Version 5.1 and PHP4 Module is enabled.
When creating your date field
When creating your date field be sure to select datetime for the data type and datestamp.
Datestamp is a timestamp was a count of seconds since 1970 - which is very useful for recording modern events but not past dates because of the 1970 limit.
