Among the properties of the File object is date, a number in time_t format.ããIs the property "laston_date" of the user.stats object also in time_t formatã(or readily convertible to it)?ããI am thinking of developing a java-script alternative to Bullseye that takesãa user to the bulletin section only if any of its files have been updatedãsince his last visit. Perhaps it could also display its menu on-the-fly,ãusing descriptions in another field of the .cfg lines that now hold onlyãfile names, and highlight any newly updated files. But of course, itãwould be necessary to compare file dates with the caller's previous logonãtime. ããOr perhaps someone has already written a module like this? No useãreinventing the wheel...ããã ãã---ã þ Synchronet þ The Bauding House - baudhous.synchro.netã
