Subject: FLASH: Help with an FTP Site
From: amos.mcmorrow
Date: Mon, 10 Apr 2000 17:32:26 +0100

I am new to Flash and am trying to impress the boss with an FTP site on our
corporate Intranet.
My intention was to have a directory containing the files with a
corresponding text file detailing the application.
The FTP 'application' interrogates the directory building a list of files /
descriptions available for download, the selected file would be acquired
using a GetURL command?
A bit of a show stopper seems to be the lack of file handing options
available to Flash.
Could anyone please tell me how to parse a directory listing into
variables.

If I am barking up the wrong tree please comment as desire to impress could
lead to new responsibilities (Like doing this for a living!!?!)
I can't find any examples on this any where but if anybody could point me
at one then I would be very grateful.
