    different methods

    Hi,

    Im just looking for some opinions or ideas on how i might go about doing the following:

    Say i have www.filesite.com/files/ and i want to search the /files index and grab every file name their ( including extension ) and maybe place into a listbox on my form..

    really im jus lookin for different methods of either grabbing all the names and then ill search through them from my program or search through them first and grab just the one/ones it finds.

    Thanks,
    ice

    That's only possible if the server is set to list directories. If it is, it will send an HTML page of the files. You'd need to parse that HTML to get what files are there.

    Actually I dont think its like that. Flash Get has a browser in it that does what you want Ice. It works on any site also. Check that out and see if they house an open source so you can see how it works.
