Q: 

How do you read a jpg creation date in Flash using AS3

I'm loading thumbnails repeatedly in a sequential order. 01.jpg 02.jpg etc.

I need to know if they're failing to be produced. The only way I can think of is to read the creation time of the jpg, so I can verify that it's been updated.

Anyone know the best way to read creation time in jpg in as3? I didn't see that in the headers by parsing the binary, and these will not have EXIF metadata.

Thanks!
