Preserved Topic: You too, can be a winner. if you answer this... (Page 1 of 1)

What I want to do is this:

I want my web page to contain the last date that it was modified.

What I want to have to do each time I modify it:

Nothing.


Is there some code that can read the date of modification off of a web document, then print it wherever I want?

If you can help me out, I'd be obliged.

If you have SSI, then there's an easier way, but if not, I think this works...

<script language="JavaScript">
document.write(document.lastModified);
</script>

I'm not sure the M should be capitalized in that... give it a shot.

If the easier way is easier, then I'd like to use it. My site is on www.geocities.com, and I don't know what determines SSI availability.

How do I know if I can use it?

If it's too complicated to explain to a newbie I'll just pop some blue pills and accept the JS.

You can't use SSI on geocities.

if you wanna do server-side things move to www.f2s.com !
but im not sure if it also supports SSI ?

f2s supports ssi, but you have to end your files with .shtml

Thanks guys.

I think I'll stick with the JS then.

By the way, Slime. The 'm' is fine.
