Grimmwerks, That's easy, but you need to configure the www server like this: If no index.html exists in a folder, then show directory contents instead. This is just one check box on a Mac server, I don't know about windows. Once you've done that you can just do a

I've noticed some shakiness when doing this tho... A lot of times it only works the 2nd time i issue the getNetText(). Don't have a clue to why. So I switched over to using the Shockwave Multiuser Server instead, which is a tad more capable. If you want to do it using SMUS, have a look at
