Dynamic Directory Listings

[Dan King]

I have an ASP page that currently gives me an output of file listing with
links to each of them for the current directory.
The problem I am having is there are getting to be too many folders. I
currently have the ASP page copied into each folder and sub folder, but if I
want to make a change, I have to change all the ASP files.

Is there a way I can create either:
Have a simple index.asp page that will reference and run my code in my
current ASP page? This way I have only one complex file to change, and
simple index in each folder.

Or

Can I create an index page at the root of the server that will give me a
folder listing, and then when I click on a link to a folder it can pass the
new current directory to the root index page to give a listing of the new
current directory?

Any code snippets would be appreciated.

I am currently using directory listings in IIS, but this is an ugly way, and
I want to be able to clean it up.

Thanks,
Dan

You can use a single page in the root, and Request.Queryst ring() to
determine the folder to be read.

<%
strTemp = request.queryst ring("folder")
if strTemp = "" then strTemp = "./" '// current folder
set fldr = fso.getfolder(s erver.mappath(s trtemp))
%>

Thanks Steve. After a little tweaking, I got it to work.
