I have pdf files in a directory that CF reads using cfdirectory. It finds the filename under the user's name such as "jsmith.pdf", but at times a user may have two pdf files in the directory such as "jsmith.pdf" and "jsmith2.pdf".
How can I have it find both instances? Can I use a wildcard character such as "*"? For example: <cfloop query="dirlist"> <!--- loop outputs the file names and sizes of each file ---> #name*# </cfloop> I tried this and got an error. See my code below. Thanks for any help. Robert O.
