if $date is the variable holing the date. Do the following

Code:
<?php
$timestamp=strtotime($date);//makes a timestamp from the date sting.
$twoweeks = mktime(0, 0, 0, date("m"), date("d")-14,  date("Y"));//Gets the timestamp for 14 days ago
if ($timestamp<$twoweeks)//if the date is over two weeks ago
.....
