Getting modified time/date from the server

[Graeme McLaren]

Hi all, I need to get the modified date of a file on the server, the code I 
have returns "Thu Jan 1 01:00:00 1970" even if I modify the file, so the 
modified date doesn't change.  I am using the following code:

open(HANDLE, $FILE);
my $date = localtime( (stat HANDLE)[9] );



Anyone know what the problem is?


Cheers,

Graeme :)
