I would strategize using a cgi stack to look a the folders that would be local to it, therefore it can return the detailed info about the drive it resides on.

Now you would ping an irev script, or a cgi, that returned what you wanted in the format you wanted, including filtered lists and directory walking (recursion).

I plan to do this in the next few weeks as my new project will be uploading and moving files around on several web servers.

Of course I will also make a webPageThatShowsDirInfo.html (or .php) for each server to document which folder/folder/files I have in order to do batch updates and purges. I will probably add a button to the page so that it will send me an email with its current data.

If you do this, it will be interesting to see your solution vs the one I will be tweaking over the next couple years.

Thanks...this sort of works.....  the example needs to use the URL

though

put URL ("ftp://user:[email protected]/directory/";) into theListOfFiles

this does list ok, similar listing to the HTTP method, however the dates
in
the listing are not consistent.

Some directories have the year, and some just have the month and day. Is
this just the way it is? The year is just not important?

This is the standard FTP way. Similar to what the "ls -l" command returns on Unix-like systems. The year is not shown if the modification date is within the last six months. Instead the time is shown. Either way, "word 9
of line x of whatever" will return the name of the file.

libUrl uses the LIST command internally for ftp directory listings (or NLST if you do as Jan suggested). It returns exactly what the server returns.

Cheers
Dave
