hi there,

i have one list box in my movie. I want that it should show all the files with the extension with .JPG in the local folder where my fla file is. Is it possible? All the files will be saved in a indexed way like jpg1.jpg, jpg2.jpg, jpg3.jpg…

If anyone know the solution, pls. tell me.

can’t do that from flash - you need php, and then flash…
