This Page Was Last Modified On..... useful javascript... check it out

This javascript will show when the page was last modified.
You can replace "This page was last updated on" with your own message..

<script LANGUAGE="JavaScript">  function initArray() {        this.length = initArray.arguments.length      for (var i = 0; i < this.length; i++)      this[i+1] = initArray.arguments[i]   }   var DOWArray = new initArray("Sunday","Monday","Tuesday","Wednesday",                                "Thursday","Friday","Saturday");   var MOYArray = new initArray("January","February","March","April",                                "May","June","July","August","September",                                "October","November","December");   var LastModDate = new Date(document.lastModified);   document.write("This page was last updated on ");   document.write(DOWArray[(LastModDate.getDay()+1)],", ");   document.write(MOYArray[(LastModDate.getMonth()+1)]," ");   document.write(LastModDate.getDate(),", ",(LastModDate.getYear()));   document.write(".");</SCRIPT>

i have posted some javascripts in munim.liquidpulse.net check that too.

hey, nice tut, but
check out my tutorial here, it's kinda the same... i suppose your method works better, but you can only put it on a site, instead of in the adressbar. my method is meant for plain html sites, which is where encyclopiatic (or whatever ) information is mostly stored...

i like that munim.liquidpulse.net too..

hey sorry.. didn't know you too posted the same tip :-).. next time will search before i post.

I'm not very good at javascript. Actually, how does a javascript know that a page has been modified, automatically? In MS Frontpage there is an applet that does the same thing, but it changes the date only when an update or republishing of the web is done.How does it work in this case?Thanks

munim.liquidpulse.net -nice..

Thanks for the useful script- i was actually looking for one a while back but i'm lazy so it never happened thanx for the snatch!
