Re: Create links "automatically" from files in anIFS folder

How about PHP? You can very simply and easily read a directory and
build links every time the page runs. Performance is pretty good too.
Here is the code that will pull the list. All you need to do is format
nice and pretty!

Details about the functions can be found at http://php.net Change the
value of the directory in opendir() to a value you need. Set it up as a
link and the browser should do the rest :-)

Here is an example of what the HREF might look like...
href="http://www.myIBMi.com/files/pdfs/mybigfile.pdf";


$dir = opendir('/www/zendcore/htdocs/mpavlak');
while ($obj = readdir($dir)) {
if ($obj != '.' && $obj != '..') {
echo "Object is: $obj <br>"; //Make this a link, or
whatever...
}
}
closedir($dir);



Hope it's not too verbose :-)

"Can you use QShell to invoke the Unix ls command?
e.g. ls -1>dir.txt

The command above will produce a text file of all files in the current
directory."

This sounds good.
