Do your file names contain the date that you'll use to select them, or are you needing to use the last modification time of the file as your selection criteria? The answer to this question will determine the method needed to find and copy the files. If the filenames contain the date you wish to use, please post a sample of the names.

cgi::untaint::date
CGI::Untaint::date(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation CGI::Untaint::date(3pm)
NAME
CGI::Untaint::date - validate a date
SYNOPSIS
use CGI::Untaint;
my $handler = CGI::Untaint->new($q->Vars);
my $date = $handler->extract(-as_date => 'date');
DESCRIPTION
is_valid
This Input Handler verifies that it is dealing with a reasonable date. Reasonably means anything that Date::Manip thinks is sensible, so
you could use any of (for example):
"December 12, 2001"
"12th December, 2001"
"2001-12-12"
"next Tuesday"
"third Wednesday in March"
See Date::Manip for much more information on what date formats are acceptable.
The resulting date will be a Date::Simple object. Date::Simple for more information on this.
date_format
By default ambiguous dates of the format 08/09/2001 will be treated as UK style (i.e. 8th September rather than 9th August)
If you want to change this, subclass it and override date_format()
WARNING
Date::Manip does not play nicely with taint mode. In order to work around this we locally clobber Date::Manip's 'timezone' code. As we're
only interested in dates rather than times, this shouldn't be much of an issue. If it is, then please let me know!
