I'm assuming that your pages are including all the content which is
static instead of fetching the dynamic data from a database.

Then you need to begin with list all the pages, you can use the dir()
function ( http://php.net/manual/en/function.dir.php ) and get the
filetime() for each file, store those in an array with the time in
unixtime as the key and the filename as the value, this requires that
each file has it's unique time, or else you need to have an array of
file names instead of a single value. Then user ksort (
http://php.net/manual/en/function.ksort.php ) to sort the values, use
the numeric sorting.
