Hi all,

I tried putting this at the beginning of a PHP file:

<?php
echo "Last-modified: " . date( "F d Y.", getlastmod() );
print "";
?>

The goal was to ensure that the browser would realize
that the page is newly produced HTML. However its not
working. The browser shows above the page the expression
Last-modified: ...

Can anyone explain how to properly do this?

Thanks.

have you checked to see if getlastmod is actually returning a value?

If you're actually trying to send a header, you need to use the
header() function, not echo it out. Make sure you send the headers
before any output is sent.

See: http://php.net/header
