Sometimes it's not easy to tell when a Web page was last updated. If the author doesn't show you outright, you should be able to find out with a snippet of JavaScript code. Open your JavaScript-enabled Web browser and type the following on the Address line: javascript:alert(document.lastModified) -- hit Enter, and a dialog box should pop up with the time & date of the last page modification. It's a simple trick you should keep up your sleeve should the need arise.
