Well, 1st Jan 1970 is the start of the Unix epoch (i.e. what you'd get for
doing a date() on a timestamp of 0). Seeing as 31st Dec 1969 is fairly close
to this, it's worth checking that header.php exists and that your stat()
call isn't returning null or a negative.

if (file_exists ("header.php")) { 
  $modified = stat ("header.php");
  echo "Last modified: ".date("F j, Y, g:i a",$modified[9]);
} else {
  echo "Can't find header.php!";
}

You could also try with stat("/complete/path/to/header.php");

Why is this:

<?php
$modified = stat("header.php");
echo "Last Modified: ".date("F j, Y, g:i a",$modified[9]);
?>

returning this:

Last Modified: December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm

from this:

-rw-r--r--  1 gfxdesi  vuser  1196 Dec 11 09:22 header.php

Anyone?
