Ok, So here is the deal, I have around 300 flash files in a folder. Instead of just going into the directory and clicking on them individually. Is there a way to automatically create a webpage (doesn't matter type of code) that links to each file individually in a list?


If this is possible help me out because I don't wanna get stuck doing each one individually.

Thanks

If they have sequenced names then you could write a small routine to load them automatically.
You can create list of files in a directory automatically and put this list in a drop down list box.

If your server supports PHP, Try this:

PHP Code:

<?php
/**   
*  Change  the  path  to  your  folder.   
*   
*  This  must  be  the  full  path  from  the  root  of  your   
*  web  space.  If  you're  not  sure  what  it  is,  ask  your  host.   
*   
*  Name  this  file  index.php  and  place  in  the  directory.   
*/   
                                                           
//  Define  the  full  path  to  your  folder  from  root   
$path  =  "CHANGE THIS TO YOUR PATH";   
                                                           
//  Open  the  folder 
$dir_handle  =  @opendir($path)  or  die("Unable  to  open  $path"); 

// Start the ordered list
echo "<ol>";

//  Loop  through  the  files 
while  ($file  =  readdir($dir_handle))  { 
    
    if($file  ==  "."  ||  $file  ==  ".."  ||  $file  ==  "index.php"  ) 
    
    continue; 
    echo  "<li><a href=\"$file\">$file</a></li>"; 

} 
// Close the ordered list
echo "</ol>";

//  Close 
closedir($dir_handle); 

?>

I couldn't get the php to work, any other ideas?

You can use javascript also.
Make two arrays of same length. One with display text, another with actual filenames.
Then loop through them to show on the page. Its not dynamic though. php was a better solution for that.
If you need help on coding let me know.

what server side code can you run ??

Yea what code can you use. The code I posted works, and I use it myself on some sites. Make sure you change:

PHP Code:

//  Define  the  full  path  to  your  folder  from  root   
$path  =  "CHANGE THIS TO YOUR PATH"; 


to point to the folder you want listed. That is of course your server supports PHP.

Make sure the PHP file also ends in .php as well..

Do you have PHP running on your server? Maybe you're on an ASP server...
