[Zope] DTML Method - delete files

[Ausum Studio]

Look for the object DateTime in the help files of your Zope installation.
They have a nice set of methods to compare time dates.

Anyways, they all return false or true, so in your case I would convert the
time dates to integers, then perform a simple subtraction operation, and
check if the most recent date is greater to ...
seconds_in_a_day * 5.

I am almost done writing the script but I need to figure out how to
compare two dates. For instance, I have this: <dtml-var ZopeTime
fmt="%m/%d/%Y">
                                  <dtml-var modification_date
fmt="%m/%d/%Y">

*** Now I need to compare the two dates to see if the ZopeTime is
greater by 5 days.

Any ideas on how to do that using dtml?
