Among its functions, the config SSI command allows you to specify the way the time and date are displayed with the timefmt argument, and it takes a number of special values that are summarized in the table below.
The config command in the following example makes use of two of those special time values:
<!--#config timefmt="%D %r"-->
The file address.html was last modified on:
<!--#flastmod file="address.html"-->.
where %D specifies that the date appear in "mm/dd/yy" format, and %r specifies that the time appear as "hh/mm/ss AM|PM."
Thus the previous example would produce output such as:
The file address.html was last modified on: 12/23/95 07:17:39 PM
