Receive folder contents

[djcottrell]

I am a noob to asp programming. I have a project i would like to create but I was told that the only way to do it was through asp. I need to create a webpage where the customer can select a folder on their computer and submit the form. When they submit the form it enters all the file names into an array and posts them to another page.

If anyone could give me some hints on how to do this or possibly a sample it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for any help

This sounds like it's going to be very painful for you to do. It's possible, but you will most likely need to use some sort of client side language to handle this. The problem is that a lot of client side programming languages will limit what you can do on a clients machine. Example: you are not able to execute files using a client side language.

I do not need to execute files i simply need a list of them

Use FSO to display file names in a folder. You can then use the array of names in any manner you wish.

I don't think this will work..

File Scripting Object will work server side, but I'm not sure if it will work on the clients side.
