That's the problem exactly. Any dynamic content (SSI, CGI, PHP, ASP, JSP, CFM, etc.) is just that - dynamic. That means it's generated on the fly, when requested, and it can potentially change each time it's requested. Most of the time, dynamic web pages don't issue a Last-Modified HTTP header, so htdig assumes the current time by default. There are tricks to get dynamic pages to issue Last-Modified headers, but they're not commonly used. According to Torsten Neuer, you should be able to add a line like <!--#flastmod file="$DOCUMENT_NAME" --> at the very start of an SSI file to force it to output a Last-Modified header. I've never tried this myself. See the thread "Last modified date revisited - Apache" for more details: http://www.htdig.org/mail/2000/10/index.html#17 -- Gilles R.
