Hi Deborah
I'm not at all sure you need to use any modules like Time::Local. Just
convert your epoch seconds into epoch days by dividing by 8400 (seconds per
day).
my $epoch_today = time / 8400;
if ($event_start / 8400 == $epoch_today or $event_end / 8400 ==
$epoch_today)
{
:
}
It's easy to make this a bit more concise, but this illustrates the
principle.
HTH,
Rob
