Can't see a way to get an actual file list, but <INPUT TYPE="FILE">
puts a text field and 'Browse' button on an html form. Clicking Browse brings up the standard 'File Open' dialog box (on windows, anyway), where the user can choose a (single) file. The file name (w/path) gets put into the text field, and becomes the value of the file form element. Intended for use in uploading a file to the server, but there's no reason you can't stop that from happening with javascript. If you're clients are browsers, and you really need a file list, you may need to use an applet. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, May 14, 2002 1:48 AM To: JDJList Subject: [jdjlist] RE: get the names of all the file under a folder Hi.
