In the "Date and Time Functions" chapter of the PHP manual you have all
date and time functions, including strtotime()

As you already mentioned, checkdate sounds like a good option.
You may also find useful this code for a previous additional client-side
validation:
/*
* Returns true if valid date, false otherwise
* Month range is [1,12]
*/
function is_date(day, month, year // v2005-03-14
var TheDate=new Date();
TheDate.setFullYear(year, month-1, day);
return (TheDate.getDate()==day) && (TheDate.getMonth()==month-1) &&
(TheDate.getFullYear()==year);
}
