Ruby on Rails - Date Comparison
===

I am trying to compare dates for an app in rails. I have tried this link <http://stackoverflow.com/questions/992431/comparing-dates-in-rails>. But this is not what I want, suppose I have a filter according to dates, then I am doing

`<% jobs = @user.jobs.where(:curr_date => (Date.today))%>`
 

Here, curr_date is a "date" attribute chosen by me.

This code works for entries which have today's date, but if I want all entries which have date between today and a week before, what should I do?

Thanx! :)
