Not like that. "put "http://www.myserver.ch/test.mc.gz"; into href" downloads the text of the file. Best you can do is use ftp to get a listing of the directory your file is in and that listing will include the date the file was modified. Something like: put url "ftp://ftp.myserver.ch/directory/"; into temp put line lineOffset("test.mc.gz",temp) of temp into fld "Current Files" ...and get your date from there. > > Any help ? > > Cheers > Rolf > Andu Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Info: http://www.xworlds.com/metacard/mailinglist.htm Please send bug reports to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, not this list.
