Can you show us what you've got so far?

perldoc -f localtime is the traditional starting place for date & time. Pay particular attention to the "odd" values returned for the month & year.

As you probably already know, the slightly tricky part is getting the leading zeros. You can do something basic, like:

($day < 10) && ($day = "0$day"); ($month < 10) && ($month = "0$month");
Or, you could use a standard function which allows you to specify padding values for fields (sprintf), An even better choice is strftime, which was especially written to handle date/time values.
