Directory listing

I am trying to get the directory name instead of the directory and filename.
I am currently using the input type="file" but it doesn't allow me to just
select the directory. Does anyone have an easy solution for this?

Thank you,

Todd

there is no html tag/control that allows a user to select a directory.
You'd have to use an ActiveX or Java applet for something like that.

Karl,
Thanks for the reply. I am using ASP.NET 2003 with VB. Do you know of
a pre-existing object or routine that can retrieve a specific directory
name?

Thanks,

Todd
