The problem I am having is that htdig seems to be attached the same last modified date to all documents - the date being the date of the index database files.

This is frustrating as some searhes rely on time sorting which doesn't happen.

Do you have any ideas? I have been searching the web and fiddling around for days but have been unable to make any headway!

The first thing to do is to check on what your web server is returning as the modification date. Depending on the way things are configured and the manner in which the content is being generated (i.e. use of dynamic page creation), the web server might very well be returning the date and time the page is requested, or perhaps not returning any date at all. There is not a lot that htdig can do in this case since the only thing it has to work with is what the web server provides.

If you have the dates available within document meta tags, you might want
to take a look at the following attribute.
