Hi,

mysql> show table status like '<tablename>'\G

will report you the date and time of creation, updation,etc of the specified 
table.  'SHOW STATUS'  enables only view. 
Note 1: For some storage engines, this value is NULL. For example, InnoDB 
stores multiple tables in its tablespace and the data file timestamp does not 
apply. 

As you have specified that you want it to display it in the webpage, then 
retrieve the same from the 'tables' table of information_schema database.

mysql> use information_schema;
mysql> show tables;
mysql> select * from TABLES where TABLE_NAME='<tablename>';

Note 2:  Check the user privilege to access the database.  If not grant it.

Thanks
ViSolve DB Team.
