I'm not sure what you're doing with the SSI but here's some code to help 
munge a date into the format you're after:

my ($sec,$min,$hour,$mday,$mon,$year,$wday,$yday,$isdst) = 
localtime(time);
my $fulldate = sprintf "%4d/%02d/%02d\n", 1900+$year, $mon+1, $mday;
my $daymon = sprintf "%02d/%02d", $mon+1, $mday;

See sprintf (perldoc -f sprintf) for details about the formatting options 
of the input string.


Hope that helps,
William
