Hi there --

In the process of updating a phpBB forum I was using Compare Frontmost Documents to find any mods in the existing php or html that I want moved to the updated pages, and I discovered that "new" and "old" when comparing documents apparently does not follow the modification date of the two docs, which is what I expected.

I have posted a screenshot at <http://www.datatude.net/images_misc/newOldSwapped.png>

Notice that going by the modification dates (which I would presume is what "Last Saved" means in the document toolbar area, correct??) are 4/26/06 in the left-hand document and 12/19/06 in the right-hand document. The line currently highlighted in the Differences window says: Extra lines in Old before 1131 in New. But the extra lines are in the document with the latest Last Saved date.

Have I run up against a critter or am I just short in info re how this works?

TIA for any light anyone can shed on this
