Experts,
I need a CFTree control to show the contents of a folder on the webserver. The structure of this directory is known and is not supposed to change: the root directory will contain no files itself, but will have exactly 1 level of subdirectories, which will have the pertinent files. Is there a way to do this with a single CFDirectory tag, which can be "group by"ed and displayed with a single CFTreeItem tag?
Even if the solution is hardcoded (I'd actually prefer if it can be dynamically recursive to include any number of subdirectory levels, but I'm not picky), I need a CFDirectory query (or series of queries) that I can display with a CFTree. CFTree must be really easy, because there seems to be no need for live, working examples out there. I couldn't find any, at least. Can you retroactively go back and assign a child node to an existing node with the "parent" property? And how does one make the plus-signs appear next to unexpanded folders, along with the dotted lines to the child folders?
In short, I know nothing about CFDirectory, CFTree, or CFFile. I haven't had much time to work on this, so I'd really appreciate your help on this.
Thanks!
