newbie: date/time functions problems

Hello,
I am making my first website in PHP5 and I have a problem with date/time
functions.
I have written (in Scripts.inc PHP file):
function Footer()
{
echo date('Y.m.d', filemtime($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'])); // this is line
201
}
to print in footer last modification date of current page.
Unfortunately I receive errors:

Warning: filemtime() [function.filemtime]: stat failed for
/StowarzyszenieIntegracja/Club.php in
F:\Inetpub\wwwroot\StowarzyszenieIntegracja\Scripts.inc on line 201

Strict Standards: date() [function.date]: It is not safe to rely on the
system's timezone settings. Please use the date.timezone setting, the TZ
environment variable or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case
you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you
most likely misspelled the timezone identifier. We selected 'Europe/Paris'
for '1.0/no DST' instead in
F:\Inetpub\wwwroot\StowarzyszenieIntegracja\Scripts.inc on line 201

I don't understand this errors. Could you help me?

Try this:

date_default_timezone_set('Europe/Warsaw');
echo date('Y.m.d', filemtime($_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME']));

Thank you, but...
Now I have:

Warning: filemtime() [function.filemtime]: stat failed for
/StowarzyszenieIntegracja/Association.php in
F:\Inetpub\wwwroot\StowarzyszenieIntegracja\Scripts.inc on line 217

At least we got rid of the date() warning... Oh well, let's get
radical:

date_default_timezone_set('Europe/Warsaw');
echo date('Y.m.d', filemtime(__FILE__));

The problem with this approach is that it will display modification
time for Scripts.inc rather than Association.php... Can you live with
that?

No, it is not a good solution in my case. Include file Scripts.inc is used
in a few independent .php pages and I want to show modification date of each
of them.
I cannot simply forget about warning because the date shown is 1970.01.01
and it is not correct.
