|I have created a "guest book" but only my client will use the guest book.
| When he submits the info I am having the "guestlog.htm" pulled into a public
| page where folks can see what he has posted for that day.
|
| What I want is for when the "guestlog.htm" page is updated I want that date
| to appear on the home page so that guests know that the director has updated
| his info - it will say "Directors Updates - last updated ......" I want this
| to happen automatically because I don't want to have to update the date
| everytime he makes a change. I don't need a log. I can get the late updated
| info to appear on the page that was updated I am just not sure how to get
| that date to appear on a different page.
|
| Does that clarify?
