Convert file.modificationDate to UNIX? AS3

On my Flex project, when I call a File's modificationDate property, it's being displayed as Wed Mar 7 20:14:07 GMT+0800 2012. Can anyone help me out on how to convert that to a UNIX timestamp?

Just use the Date class

( new Date( "Wed Mar 7 20:14:07 GMT+0800 2012" ) ).time

http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/Date.html#time

but you should be able just access the time property of the file's modificationDate (assuming it is a Date object)
