date function
hi,
I have to ftp previous days file from a directory to another location. The name of the files are like "xxx20060225" (yyyymmdd format)
"xxx20060226"
ls -lrt xxx*| tail -2| head -1 will give me the file, but if i could get anything related to the "date" function to get that previous days filename, it would have been great.
thanx,
abey

dateinterval
DATEINTERVAL(3) 1 DATEINTERVAL(3)
The DateInterval class
INTRODUCTION
Represents a date interval.
A date interval stores either a fixed amount of time (in years, months, days, hours etc) or a relative time string in the format that
DateTime's constructor supports.
CLASS SYNOPSIS
DateInterval
DateInterval
Properties
o public integer$y
o public integer$m
o public integer$d
o public integer$h
o public integer$i
o public integer$s
o public integer$invert
o public mixed$days
Methods
o public DateInterval::__construct (string $interval_spec)
o publicstatic DateInterval DateInterval::createFromDateString (string $time)
o public string DateInterval::format (string $format)
PROPERTIES
o $y
- Number of years.
o $m
- Number of months.
o $d
- Number of days.
o $h
- Number of hours.
o $i
- Number of minutes.
o $s
- Number of seconds.
o $invert
- Is 1 if the interval represents a negative time period and 0 otherwise. See DateInterval::format.
o $days
- If the DateInterval object was created by DateTime.diff(3), then this is the total number of days between the start and end
dates. Otherwise, $days will be FALSE. Before PHP 5.4.20/5.5.4 instead of FALSE you will receive -99999 upon accessing the prop-
erty.
