So I have a due date for tasks, stored in the database as ’10-nov-2011′.
Is there someone I can do a query to select all tasks that due date is less then now?
A straight out due < today doesn’t work.

Change the column to type
date. Then your query will work.If you can’t change the column type, use
STR_TO_DATEto parse the string into a date.
