It would be good if we can also get the same at server side when user
upload a file using form with file controls
ie, like the suggestion at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=549253
(it works even with javascript disabled)

Also remember modificationDate can be a time before creationDate on windows.
This is because modificationDate get copied when you copy a file,
hence it almost shows modificationDate of the actual content.

creationDate on other hand is file creation time on the
folder/directory and when you copy a file to a new directory, it will
be showing the coping time.

PS, for JS option there is mozilla bug 390776

You can get the same on the server side. how you get it just varies from
language to language though, and obviously the exact file information
available is dependant on the file system in use, i.e. fat32, ntfs,
ext3, reiserfs, etc.

I intend to update the FileAPI draft so that creationDate and modificationDate are exposed on File, alongside name.
