File date

[gcastillo]

I need to display the modification date of an file.xls. In VB I can use FileDateTime("path_to_file&quot, but I can not make it work in VBScript.... Any Idea??

I don't believe it can be done client-side, since that info is not generally provided by the web server. You would have to use either Server Side Includes (which does exactly what you want very easily) or use CGI, in which case you could use a language such as Perl to read your filesystem and get the date info and then return it to the browser.

I´ve never used Server Side includes, where can I find information about it?. Is some way to know if my web host has that service?
Thank you!

Thank you. I've found how a SSI works, and the code I need. Now I just need to know if my web host has that service...
Thank you very much...
