Hi Monks!
How can I get yesterday's date from today's date, but making sure I don't get weekends for yesterday's date.
I can get yesterday's date using this:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use CGI qw/:standard/;
use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser);
use Date::Calc qw(Add_Delta_Days Day_of_Week);
use Date::Calc qw(Today Add_Delta_Days);
print header();
my @date = Add_Delta_Days( Today(), -1 );
print "@date\n";
But if I run it I am getting "2008-2-3" and it's a weekend date, any help? Thanks!!!

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
