I hate to ask this, but did you evaluate the new code? As far as I can tell, the worksheet only updates the timestamp when at least one cell is evaluated.

For instance, if I don't remember what worksheet some example is in, and I don't want those worksheets to move to the top, I'll often just open them, but not evaluate. But if there's an %auto cell, then they always update the time. Similarly, I can make as many changes in the TinyMCE stuff (comments between computation cells) as I want, and it never seems to update the time, even though I do save it.

I hate to ask this, but did you evaluate the new code? As far as I can tell, the worksheet only updates the timestamp when at least one cell is evaluated. The fact that you ended your code with something that would have given an error if evaluated makes this plausible.

For instance, if I don't remember what worksheet some example is in, and I don't want those worksheets to move to the top, I'll often just open them, but not evaluate.

If that's not it, then I don't know. It certainly doesn't happen very often then.
