var page = 'data/appointments/<? echo $_SESSION['name']; ?><? echo $_SESSION['last']; ?>App.html';
var lM;
function checkModified(){
   $.get(page, function(a,a,x){
      var mod = x.getResponseHeader('last-modified');
      alert (lM);
      alert ("page" +mod);
});
}

when i alert the last-modified from my page, it outputs the same value, even when when i deleted all my cookies and cache , deleted the file from the server and replace it.

it still outputs one value

It's the server that will be setting this value. If it's setting it wrong then the server is where the problem lies. Not in your JavaScript. – Jivings Oct 23 '12 at 05:01
i checked the value,and it changes constantly when i modify it. but the value on my alert is still the same – telexper Oct 23 '12 at 05:06
How are you checking it? – Jivings Oct 23 '12 at 05:09
from the server, after modifiying the file , i check if the value from the server changes – telexper Oct 23 '12 at 05:13
`it changes constantly when i modify it` - How are you getting this value? Be specific. – Jivings Oct 23 '12 at 05:14
Im checking it from the server. the listings from my file manager! – telexper Oct 23 '12 at 05:15
That is not necessarily the same as what your webserver is producing. – Jivings Oct 23 '12 at 05:30
even checked it on file zila same changes occurs – telexper Oct 23 '12 at 05:31
`Last-Modified` from **HTTP response header** does not necessary equals to `Last Modified` from **file system**. It's your server (e.g. Apache) that decides what the response look like. – Passerby Oct 23 '12 at 05:46
