RE: [Flashcoders] retrieving names of external files in a folder (oris there something similar to Directors getNthFileNameInFolder())
Well there's no way to access local files, that's been a security issue for a long time now. You can however use any of the flash wrappers around and they will provide you with the functionality. Some of them are free some aren't. But they all support what you're looking for. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mike Britton Sent: quarta-feira, 3 de Maio de 2006 14:32 To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] retrieving names of external files in a folder (oris there something similar to Directors getNthFileNameInFolder()) I made a very basic "directory scraper" class way back.

"Die machen..." mit "Die machen..." meinte ich Alprausch.
