Hi: I would like to thank everyone for their invaluable comments and suggestions. I had looked up the archives but unfortunately I could not find references to the topic. The problem with the search no doubt was due to my inexperience with the search tool. I did not post my url because I didn't think it was appropriate. Since Ms. Sawyers suggested I list the url for the website here it is: http://www.ascld-lab.org . The incorrect date was showing up when the user went to the search page and conducted the search. After the postings I learned from the user that it was not every page that was listing the incorrect date last modified but actually one that was created on the fly from a perl script. As most of you surmised the user was in fact using Netscape Communicator version 4.06. MSIE gave the correct date on all pages. I wound up using a modified version of the script suggested by Cyanide-7. Instead of making it read out as Unknown I had it read out the date at that point in time which was consistent with the date that MSIE gave. Mr. Temer, your reference to Lesson Eight from the Tutorial of the JavaScript Learning Center on the Date Object and Arrays was great and I am going to read the entire series. Thanks for the reference. I also read Mr. Koch's webpage ( http://www.xs4all.nl/~ppk/js ) under Date and Time => Last Modified and found that very informative too. When I see the many comments and suggestions made in this forum I realize how little I know but I also realize how much I can learn. Once again many thanks. Anthony Romano "Justice through Science"
