How to inc date by day

[north_star 16]

I wonder if there is fellow UBOTers that could help me to inc the date by day inc. here is my not working code

 

ui stat monitor("Date : ", #Date)
loop(100) {
    set(#Date, $substring($date, 0, 10), "Global")
    wait(3)
}

 

thank you all

$date is a UB internal function.  You can't manipulate that - it only gives you the current date, no many how many loops-around it you give it...

 

If you want to have a number/string looking-like a date, you can construct it yourself.

Do you have any suggestion to solve this ..?  

 

I wish UBOT have a calendar Built in node

If I do anything with dates, I normally do a call to a PHP script I have hosted on my VPS and then scrape the page returned.

What if you get this php script ( http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8307963/increase-current-date-by-5-days ), Use get() to get a url you pass in the URL to the script (can be a number, as in how many days you want to increase current date with) - and the scrape the date from there into a new varible.

 

The only bad about that is that you rely on a php script on an online server...
