Hi all,

I have a need for a javascript to check a webpage creation date once a day and if the date is newer than the last date checked, open a popup with a message. Then after three days close the popup till the referenced webpage has again been replaced/changed.

Is this possible?

Thanks a million,

TerryK

If I understand you correctly,The information reegarding a file is only server specific as yet,JavaScript can not access resources on the system.

Thank you Khalid, I was afraid of that. I seemed to me that there was a way to tell if a page had changed via javascript... I guess not... Anyway, thanks again for the quick reply.

Would it make a difference if the page that needed to be referenced, was part of the same site?

Thanks,
