RE: [PHP] File Created Date?
[snip] Is there a way to get the timestamp when a file was CREATED? Looking at stat I can find the modified date, last accessed and changed - but not the created date. There doesn't appear to be a Filesystem function for it either. I'm sure it's obvious, but it is alluding me for now. [/snip] The date CREATED would be the first MODIFIED dateonce a file has been modified the date is replaced and the orginal date is "lost to the ether". On docs created in Window$ programs the date created is saved for access by the application, but the date modified is what is shown if you are exploring directory lists. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] File Created Date?
Hi. [quote from php manual ] In some Unix texts the ctime of a file is referred to as being the creation time of the file. This is wrong. There is no creation time for Unix files in most Unix filesystems.
