Right. I wonder though whether HttpClient has some "screen scraping" code that extracts the 'directory listing' many web servers (i.e. Apache) produce. In any case, this would need custom coding to do the screen scraping (which would be brittle) and then issue a <get> for each file to download. --DD --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
