How can I list the file content of a directory?

[John]

Hi,
I wonder if it is possible to list the content of a directory (a
directory that contains image files for example) by using a JavaScript
method, something like in Java with

File directory = new File("C:\myDirectory");
String[] list = directory.list();
....
....
.... etc.

Thank you for your answerz
John

Not in the default security environment.
If you want this for your own computer or a CD app, check out HTAs. You
can do a lot more with those. It's pretty much the same as a "normal"
HTML page, but uses a .hta extention and runs only on Windows OS. You'd
use WSH (Windows Script Host) to get the file list.
