Dynamic date value required for function / view

Is there a method to send getdate() to a function without the function
returning an error: (functions is called from a view)
Incorrect syntax near '('
example:
Select * from myfunction(getdate())
create function myfunction (@.Today datetime)
returns @.mytbl(id int identity(1,1) null, myfield varchar(10) null)
Begin
--do stuff
return
End
--

declare @.dt datetime
set @.dt=getdate()
Select * from myfunction(@.dt)
create function myfunction (@.Today datetime)
RETURNS TABLE
as
RETURN (SELECT
*
FROM
Orders
WHERE
orderdate < = @.Today)

chose an alternate route. The requirement was to see only a specific "dates
between..." from a view. The view can call a function, but a view can't pass
a variable.
