    If the server you're using has server-side includes (SSI) enabled, it's the matter of one line in your HTML code:

    Code:
    <p align="left">This page, "index.html" was last updated on <!--#flastmod file="index.html" -->.</p>
    The only thing that has to change is the "file="index.html"" part, just change it for each page you have

    Then your server doesn't have SSI enabled. What are you using as a server?

    I've never used it, so I'd suggest searching in the documentation or around the Web for Microsoft PWS and Server-side Includes. It may not be possible at all, the only time I've used SSI is with Apache as the web server (incidently, I'd recommend using that instead of MS-PWS...it is more configurable, usually)

    SSI is a part of Apache ( www.apache.org )

    It may be *free* (btw, what's wrong with that?) but it runs the majority of the web servers on the Internet, it's well supported and documented.

    It's DocumentRoot or DirectoryRoot or something like that, there's a sample one in "httpd.conf" that points to "[ApacheDir]/htdocs"...I don't have a copy of the config files near me. If those don't work, I'll scrounge one up.

    To make PWS work with SSI you'll have to name the file .shtml instead of just .html .

    Actually, you can do this with JavaScript
    Code:
    <SCRIPT language="JavaScript">
document.write(document.lastModified)
</SCRIPT>
    this should be working just fine.
