Re: CFDIRECTORY filter shortcoming
filter=*.jpg|*.gif|*.png No way. As the docs says: One filter can be applied. Only one filter, with ? or * wild characters, A la DOS, or even A la CP/M should I say... But with CFX_ListDir, this will work using attribute EXTENSIONS = *.jpg,*.gif,*.png -- ___ REUSE CODE!

Re: CFDIRECTORY filter shortcoming
I use CFDIRECTORY all the time to scan the image library for various maintenance purposes. I want to read and list only image files. These may be .jpg, .gif, or .png, yet CFDIRECTORY can only filter on one file type. Does anyone know of a way I can extend the file filter and get what I want in a single read? Right now I need to run a CFDIRECTORY for each file type I want and combine outputs. This seems kind of stupid. Thanks Robert B.

Re: CFDIRECTORY filter shortcoming
Does anyone know of a way I can extend the file filter and get what I want in a single read? Have a look at CFX_ListDir : http://www.contentbox.com/claude/customtags/ListDir/viewListDir.cfm You can provide a list of extentions, among many other parameters : CFX_ListDir DIRECTORY = full path name of the directory to list [NAME] = Name for output record set. [QUERY] = Name of an optional query to append results to. [FILTER] = File extension filter applied to returned names; [EXTENSIONS] = List of file extensions [MODIFIEDBEFORE] = limit file list to those modified before this date [MODIFIEDAFTER] = limit file list to those modified after this date [TYPE] = file or dir, to list only files or directories [READONLY] = select files according to their read-only attribute [SYSTEM] = select files according to their system attribute [HIDDEN] = select files according to their hidden attribute [ARCHIVE] = select files according to their archive attribute [RECURSE] = Whether the tag performs the action on subdirectories [SORT] = Query column(s) by which to sort directory listing -- ___ REUSE CODE!
