true – filenames with ampersands in them will break the script – just URLEncode the filenames before you output them

theres one little flaw in your script.. filenames with & in them will give an error

I got it. I was just trying to parse filedata.load(“avatarLister.php”); instead of filedata.load(“http://localhost/xml writer/avatarLister.php”);

Could you elaborate just a bit; this is all new to me.

Sorry and thank you.

Yep. Just use an the XML object to load the data into flash.
e.g.
filedata = new XML();
filedata.load( “XMLFileStructure.php” );

Is there any way to parse this information into Flash?

Hello, thank you for the code! How can I order folders in alphabetical order. It seems like they are ordered by date created. Thank you!

Hey there, Sana.. you can just change the line that says:
if( $item == “.” || $item == “..” ) continue;
to skip over any files and just concentrate on folders:
if( $item == “.” || $item == “..” || !is_dir($item) ) continue;
