e: e: e: "last motified" of webpage?

In js, just get the string returned by the document.lastModified property. For example: 

alert(document.lastModified);
You can then pick apart the string to give it real month values and all that. If you get a string like "Jan 1, 1970 GMT", then the date is unknown. Just google "javascript "date modified" file" or something like that and it should work fine, that is what I ended up doing. I did not think it would be that easy. 

Have a great day,
Alex

I know they are not popular, but I need it to show progress on a
site.  How do I get that "last modified" thing? I know it is an
http header, but that is the only place I have heard of it.  Can
Javascript access it?



Have a great day,
Alex

"last

modified..." but just get the files last modification time.

My programs don't have bugs, they're called randomly added

features.

Hi all,
How do people do that cool thing where a line in a webpage says

"page last

updated: [date] [time]"? Is that manual, or is there a script

that can

extract the information and put it there?



Have a great day,
Alex
