Hey Marshall, The idea is just literally having a webpage on which you can see the size of a folder and its born on, nothing else. :)

    Hey, LinuxNoob,
    I think you will do fine with the standard Perl -M file test. If you are writing server code, I recommend code that works on both Unix and Windows. I would not assume that the target server is Windows - that could be and probably is a very bad assumption. I have written many Perl programs that work equally well on both Unix variants and Windows. See my reply to AnonMonk below re:"Born-on" time. This parameter is possible to get on Windows, but don't code that way unless you really need to do it and are aware of the incompatibility consequences.
