I've gone off and used DirectoryExists() and it seems to be holding up fine. So I guess I was worrying for nothing :P Cheers, -Joel

Can't imagine it causing a problem any more than, say, a small loop. Easier than a database query. If you start having performance issues then there could be a whole range of things that can cause problems rather than a directoryexists() call. Cheers, Simon 2008/10/21 Joel Chia <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hi, I'm just working on a page here that's ment to display a link if a certain directory already exists on the server. DirectoryExists() does the job fine. Does anyone know what kind of implications/impact there'll be if the page is called many many times (ie: intranet homepage kind of traffic levels)? Mostly worried about it making the server cry.
