Bit of a date issue

I have a date in my database but it is storeded as a string Varchar10 gets inserted fine and everthing through the datepicker field but now I want to display date form string in the m d Y format instaed of how it comes from the database 2012-04-10.
So I have a formula I've tried:
$timestamp = $row_rsclasslist['start_date'];
$timestamp = strtotime($timestamp);
$makedate = date("d, m, Y",$timestamp);

and I have a query with a repeat region to display:
<?php do { ?>
<table width="100%" border="0">
<tr>
<td width="35%"><a href="ClassDetail.php?event_id=<?php echo $row_rsclasslist['class_id']; ?>"><?php echo $row_rsclasslist['class_title']; ?></a></td>
<td width="65%"><?php echo $row_rsclasslist['start_date']; ?> <?php echo $makedate; ?></td>
</tr>
</table>
<?php } while ($row_rsclasslist = mysql_fetch_assoc($rsclasslist)); ?>

It does display and the $makedate works for the first record in the repeat region it just repeats the same date as the first record like so:

Correct date is one on left

So what am I missing? Why is'nt this repeating?

your code to format the date needs to be inside the recordset loop, after the do statement:
<?php do { ?>
