filemtime() and real file modification date

Question

PHP

It seems to be a simple task, but I can not solve it in any way.

How to get the REAL modification date of a file? And not the date of the change on the server - in my case, this is the date of upload to the server. FTP shows the correct date.

Answer 1

All file modification (and access) times are shown by stat() . If it's not there, then it's not there.

Answer 2

Try the third filectime() function as well.
