last modified script question

[Svetac]

Hi,
I use a script that shows when the page was last modified. It works fine
for just one html file. The thing I would like to do is that the
script shows me of last modified file in root directory. For example if
I change something in gallery.html or feed.xml, I would like to see that
date of change in index.html under last modified date. Could someone
help me please. Thanks in advance.

The script that I use now:

<!--
function getLongDateString()
{ //method defined on class Date.
//Returns a date string of the form: Day DD Month,YYYY
//(e.g. Sunday 27 September, 1998)
monthNames = new
Array("January","February","March","April","May","June","July","August","September","October","November","December");
dayNames = new
Array("Sunday","Monday","Tuesday","Wednesday","Thursday","Friday","Saturday");
dayOfWeek = this.getDay();
day = dayNames[dayOfWeek];
dateOfMonth = this.getDate();
monthNo = this.getMonth();
month = monthNames[monthNo];
year = this.getYear();
if (year < 2000)
year = year + 1900;
dateStr = day+", "+dateOfMonth+" "+month+" "+year;
return dateStr;
}
//register the method in the class Date
Date.prototype.getLongDateString=getLongDateString;

function DocDate()
{ //return the document modification date (excl.time)
//as a string
DateTimeStr = document.lastModified;
secOffset = Date.parse(DateTimeStr);
if (secOffset == 0 || secOffset == null) //Opera3.2
dateStr = "Unknown";
else
{
aDate = new Date();
aDate.setTime(secOffset);
//use method defined above
datestr = aDate.getLongDateString();
}
return dateStr;
}

document.write("Last change: ");
document.writeln(DocDate(), "");
// -->

You don't determine the last modified file in the root directory from
the client-side. This is something you do server-side and print the
last modified date into the page.
