The Age of the Page

Here’s a quick browsing tip for you. If you’re curious about how long it has been since a webmaster changed the page you’re looking at, put this fragment of javascript in your browser’s address bar and click on ‘go’:

javascript:alert(document.lastModified)

You should get an alert window telling you the date of the last modification to that page.

I have this set up like a link in my bookmarks so I can easily click it to check the age of any page I’m looking at.
