getting file created date

[Anon]

I have looked through the online manual and have found get last modified date and get last accessed date but I want the date that the file was created.

the filectime function reference (that function returns the file's late change time) says:

"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."

solution

i think u use

$get =passthru(ls -al);
foreach ($get as $key => $value){
if ($value[9] == 'filename'){
$date =$value[5].$value[6];
}
}

echo created date = $date;

try this if works

modify some code if any errors

cheers
