I have two dates in this format in a delimited text file like:

Arrival date: 05/JUN/2005
Departure date: 06/JUN/2005

In my code, I am doing the following but it seems to be ignoring the "eq" statement to compare the dates? Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong?

Code:

if ($Departure_Date eq $Arrival_Date){
$rTotal=$Arrival_Time-$Departure_Time ;}
else{ $GMTTotal=2400 + $Departure_Time ;}

if ($rTotal){
$rTotal=$rTotal * .01 ;}

if ($GMTTotal){
$GMTTotal=$GMTTotal / 100 ;}

if ($rTotal){
print "<td>R: $rTotal</td>\n";}
else{
print "<td>G: $GMTTotal</td>\n";}

Thanks in advance!

Arrival date: 05/JUN/2005
Departure date: 06/JUN/2005

Thouse dates are different that is why `eq` return false.
