filectime

Gets inode change time of file

 **filectime** string $filename

Gets the inode change time of a file.

filenamePath to the file.

Returns the time the file was last changed, return.falseforfailure. The time is returned as a Unix timestamp.

Voorbeeld: A example

<?php

// outputs e.g.  somefile.txt was last changed: December 29 2002 22:16:23.

$filename = 'somefile.txt';
if (file_exists($filename)) {
    echo "$filename was last changed: " . date("F d Y H:i:s.", filectime($filename));
}

?>

Opmerking: > Note: In most Unix filesystems, a file is considered changed when its inode data is changed; that is, when the permissions, owner, group, or other metadata from the inode is updated. See also (which is what you want to use when you want to create "Last Modified" footers on web pages) and . filemtime``fileatime

Opmerking: > Note also that in some Unix texts the ctime of a file is referred to as being the creation time of the file. This is wrong. There is no creation time for Unix files in most Unix filesystems.
