list files date wise for down loading

hello., how can i list files in a folder date wise? ie, to down load latest files. I want to down load files having current date, i tried with ftp_nlist but it is listing all files. it consume time. if i can list file in folder with ftp_nlist or some other command i can download only the needed files, so that i can save script time. now iam doing it with ftp_nlist and then looping through it and down loading with ftp_get. _________________________________________________________________ Join the world’s largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com
