Is there anyway to determine the date and time when a web page was last modified?

On SM, I went to View --> Page Info
Under the "General" tab, it has a "modified" field, but this just gives the current date and time, for when the web page was opened. I thought this may be because the page was retrieved from the "cache", so I went to a profile where the web page hadn't yet been loaded, but when I loaded the page, it also just gave me the date and time it was loaded.

Is it even possible to determine the modification date and time for a web page, on the receiving end?

BTW, looked at the "page source" and didn't see this information in the code.

It's not in the page source but in the HTTP headers. If you're getting just the current date and time in the Page Info then the page doesn't supply Last-Modified information, and is likely dynamically generated, although the content may appear static. Try this one:

https://www.w3.org/TR/html4/

In Page Info I'm seeing:

Modified: 13 март 2000 г. 16:38:32 ч.

(sorry for the Cyrillic)
