Thanks for your post,
I'm sorry I forgot to specify, It will be to read files from the server.
Do you have ANY server-side scripting capabilities?
Even a cgi-bin for perl? Or SSI?
I have a javascript code snippet that will fill a select element dynamically
using a cgi script. Only works in DOM browsers, though.
If you have no server-side scripting at all, you'll need to have something
that runs on the server to get that list into a text file so javascript can
include it. Or you'd need a java applet, which can read files from the server
and talk to javascript.
If you're using only MSIE, we might be able to use a COM or ActiveX, too. I'd
have to check into it, but I'm pretty sure you're not the first to want this,
so someone probably has written one already.
