Here's an example:

use strict;
use warnings;
use Time::Local;
my $textTime = "2005-09-01";
my ($year,$month,$day) = split(/-/,$textTime);
my $perlTime = timelocal("00","00","00",$day,$month,$year);
print "Time: $textTime\n";
print "Perl Time: $perlTime\n";
print "Localtime from Perl Time: ".localtime($perlTime)."\n";
