[AccessD] OT: Javascript

Bryan,

Thanks for your reply.  Yes, it does make sense, that's why I included that
bit of information...I had a sneaky suspicion.  As far as "server-side code"
is concerned, I've only dabbled in ASP.  Do you know if ASP is capable of
achieving my goal while still retaining the SSI requirement of a .stm file
extension?  Or, should I be headed in another direction?


Mark

Mark,

Not being all that good at Javascript, take this with a grain of salt.

Since you are using SSI to "create" the HTML page, and Javascript is a
Client Side script, the JS sees the last modified date as today, which is
when the HTML document that the browser sees was last modified by the
server.

I think you will need some server-side code to get the last modified date of
the html file before it gets to the client.

Does that make sense?

Group,

I am not familiar with JavaScript.  On each departmental webpage I would
like to place the last "Modified" date (as would be reported from the
operating system).  The routine below was emailed to me as is, but, when
implemented, seems to provide only today's date.  Can anyone spot the
problem and provide a solution?

Does it make a difference that these pages are .stm (using server-side
includes) instead of .htm?  Is it a problem with how I implement it?
