webpage last modified timestamp

[Dug]

Does anyone know how to get the last modified timestamp of a website (I did not create this website). I am willing to telnet or even program in Java.

Here's a javascript that'll do that:

It is NOT my website so I can not use that piece of java script.

I think there is a way doesn't the web browser use it the see if it needs to update cached pages.

If you want to check someone else's webpage, in IE you can right click, goto properties, and it should list the Creation date, and the last modified date of the page.

If you want it to show on the page, then you will have to put the javascript code into the page.
