Thus when you pass it to filemtime, it looks in the current directory, finds no matching file and returns 'false' which is not a valid date. From there things go downhill. Try prepending the value of $directorio to $file; make sure that you have the last slash between the filename and the path. You may ask why index.html works - my guess is that you have such a file in the current working directory. You could also test that $file is a file with the function is_file(filename) Cheers -- David Robley | WEBMASTER & Mail List Admin RESEARCH CENTRE FOR INJURY STUDIES | http://www.nisu.flinders.edu.au/ AusEinet | http://auseinet.flinders.edu.au/ Flinders University, ADELAIDE, SOUTH AUSTRALIA
