Hi there,

I'm having a bit of trouble with this !

I'm a flash actionscripter but need a bit of php to do this -

I need to know how to read all the files in a certain directory and then write the names to a textfile.

The main probs are, I need it to write to the file without the file extender, and I need the &'s in it so I can read it from flash?

textfile needs to be like this -

&product00=magrore&product01=sydney&product02=engl and&product03=paris&produc
t04=newyork&product05=cuba&fileloaded=1&

where magrore, sydney, england etc are the filenames less the *.jpg
extension

fileloaded is my swonking tag and the &'s are just how flash reads vars from
a textfile.

Any help would be immensly apprecitated -

How is the script going to be executed (manually, or by the flash)? Do you want the script to output any text (as in echo'd text, not what will be in the textfile), and how do you want them sorted (alphabetical, natural alphabetical, reverse, by name, by last modification time/date, ...)?

Hi there,

The script is executed manually on running it through the browser. It would be nice if it was sorted by date - I hadn't thought of that - nice touch Kage !!!!

cheers

A thought occured to me.. Why not just have Flash execute the PHP file, and the PHP will output the data you want, which the Flash can retrieve, and it will always be up-to-date for whenever you add or remove images.

Okay - that sounds pretty good, but now it's a little over my head!!

What code do you have?

Thanks mate
