The e-commerce.

last modified date

when clicking Tools -> Page Info on firefox, it says all of my product pages were last modified at whatever the present time is.

 

i don't want this to occur, how can i set this to show the date the product was last EDITED (the database saves this date if i remember correctly)

 

if it matters any, i use the header tags controller

 

 

i believe this can be useful for customers who insist you are out to get them and edited the product description after they paid for a product :lol:

yes i am talking about the firefox function

 

if the item listing (details, price, etc.) hasn't been modified, then it isn't necessarily the truth ;)

these are dynamic pages. they are being built at the time of display. a browser cannot work out if you have updated your database or not. it is not reading your site at that level. it is only looking at the page being displayed and it is built as it goes. so I am pretty sure that is what it is telling you. unless it had been cached the time will be "now"

Exactly, you have no influence on this from within osCommerce

oh, okay... i was not aware that's how the time was generated. thank you for the explanation :)

 

do you guys also happen to know if google will beat you up for your "last updated" always being -now- ?
