Hi,
Could someone take a look at the code for me below and see if you can figure
out what's wrong with it? I just want to evaluate $publish_date to see if it's
with 21 days of the current date; if so then set $new_item=" True". Not sure
why it's not doing that, I think the it's not evaluating the if statement. I do
have Date::CalC installed. Thanks.
"if (my ($year1,$month1,$day1) = Decode_Date_US($mmddyyy))".
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
sub NewProducts
{
use Time::localtime;
use Time::Local;
use Date::Calc qw(:all);
# Create date property in format mmddyyyy
# for input to Decode_Date_US() function below
my $publish_date = "01/02/2009 12:32:03 PM";
my $mmddyyyy = substr($publish_date, 5, 2);
$mmddyyyy .= substr($publish_date, 8, 2);
$mmddyyyy .= substr($publish_date, 0, 4);
if (my ($year1,$month1,$day1) = Decode_Date_US($mmddyyyy))
{
my ($year2,$month2,$day2) = Today();
my $delta = Delta_Days($year1, $month1, $day1, $year2, $month2,
$day2);
if($delta <= 21 && $delta >= 0)
{
my $new_item = "True";
}
}
} #End of sub
&NewProducts();
