in thread GD::graph time-scale option?

What is the best way to get an array with dates between start_date and end_date while using date::manip?

Something like the following might be what you want: 
#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;

use Date::Manip;

my @dates = ParseRecur( '0:0:0:1:0:0:0',  # every day
                        '100 days ago',   # base before start_date
                        'last Monday',    # start_date
                        'next Friday' );  # end_date
foreach my $date ( @dates ) {
    print "$date\n";
}

    Thanks!
    just came up with something like: 
    my $start = '01/01/2006';
my $end= '01/21/2006' ;

my @days = ParseRecur("0:0:0:1:0:0:0", $start,$start,$end);
 
print "@days\n";

    Just can't get the formatting right.

    How to limit the output to something like yyyymmdd?
    It'l be with something like %Y%m%d. But where do I put this. It'll be very obvious sorry to ask. If I've got this I can get the finish.

      Maybe something like 
      foreach my $day ( @days ) {
    print UnixDate( $day, '%Y%m%d'), "\n";
}
