Document.LastModified 1

[Gamera99]

I have been trying to use the javascript "document.lastmodified" statement in my ASPs, but it displays the date and time that the ASP was actually constructed by the server! That isn't what I wanted. I'm unaware of a server variable that shows this info....Does anyone here know a way to show the "last modified" date of an ASP?
Thanks

Last-modified is a HTTP Response header and in most cases especially with pages accessing a RDBMS you want this time set to when the page was accessed. In some instances it may be convenient to set this yourself but unfortunately I don't think ASP gives you this ability (someone correct me if I am wrong). Java Servlets and JSP do, maybe you should switch, Ahh the power of Java. Wushutwist

Hello,
See if the code below will work for you:

<%
'Get the date last modified
Set fso = Server.CreateObject(&quot;Scripting.FileSystemObject&quot
Set f = fso.GetFile(&quot;c:\Inetpub\

http://wwwroot\Project3\form.asp&quot;)

ModDate = f.DateLastModified

Response.Write ModDate

'Clean up
ModDate = &quot;&quot;
Set f = Nothing
Set fso = Nothing
%>

Hope this helps.
D.

That worked great. I used Request.ServerVariable(&quot;PATH_TRANSLATED&quot in lieu of the fully qualified path in fso.GetFile and it returned the correct dates for all of my ASPs.
Thanks a lot for your help.
