Hi:

I use the following JavaScript to tell when the webpage was last modified:

<SCRIPT type="text/javaScript">
<!---
document.write("This page was last modified: ")
document.write (document.lastModified);
// --->
</SCRIPT>

Everything seems to be satisfactory but today I received a  message from an
user that the webpage indicated that it was last updated on 12-31-1969.
Could someone explain how this is occurring.  Is the problem with their ISP
server or their computer not having the dates set correctly?

Thanks in advance for your replies.
