Are you saying that wget sends a wrong date with the If-Modified-Since header ? If so it's a bug on our side. Maybe you can come up with more details (--debug output). > If I'm right I suppose the manual should be updated What about "By default, Wget will download the remote file if the local file doesn't exist or if the time-stamp of the local file is older than the remote file. When using --no-if-modified-since, Wget will also download the remote file if the local file differs in size. This comes at the cost of one additional HEAD request per file." Regards, Tim
