You your application will be desktop(not online throught the browser), you always can embed the swf inside a application that would list the files for you and do the communication using the external API.

yes i want to list the files in a directory without a server side script. The list would then be used to load and play those files in order. The folder/directory contents could be different on many different computers that this will be installed on so i was hoping there was a way to say "look at this folder and list the contents in flash for me". I've been hinted that northcode's swf studio can do this or another projector wrapper ( http://www.northcode.com/forums/ showthread.php?t=6070&highlight=fileList ). If anyone has tested this please let me know. Thanks for the help thus far. -Jordan On Jul 11, 2006, at 1:25 PM, Marcos Neves wrote: > I think he wants to list the client dir files, not the server.
