title: PHP: How to get creation date from uploaded file?
body: <p><strong>Problem:</strong> I want to determine the original file creation time from a file uploaded to my server via PHP. </p>
  
  <p>My understanding is that the file is copied from the client to a temporary file on my server, which then is referenced in the $_FILES var. The temporary file is of course of no use because it was just created. Is there any way I could get the creation date from the clients original file?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks </p>
