Thanks for the reply but this does not give me what is required.I hope my query was clear.
when i execute the code which i posted it prints me the epoch value for "Aug 14 00:01:00".
Once it has printed the output,i want that the day value is inremented by 1 ie "Aug 15 00:01:00" so that i can get the epoch value of Aug 15 when i execute the script the second time.


Hope I get some reply which suits my requirement.
