CFDIRECTORY TO GET FOLDER LIST?

just add the TYPE="dir" attribute to your cfdirectory tag

SID,

How to I also tell it to only look for .jpg files???

use the Filter="*.jpg" attribute


obviously you can't combine type="dir" and filter="*.jpg"  

SID the type attribute was not allowed.

this is my code:

<cfdirectory name="getAlbums" action="list" type="dir" directory="\\Devserver\e\Websites\judsonmusic\images\">

Any ideas?

you should remove <cfdump var="#dirsArray#">

in that code, where are you showing the file path to get the folder from?

Can you plug my code elements into it so I can see it work?

the exmaple just lists all the dir in c:\

<cfdirectory directory="C:\" name="dirQuery" action="LIST">
                                      ^

just substitute your cfdirectory

 <cfdirectory name="getAlbums" action="list" type="dir" directory="\\Devserver\e\Websites\judsonmusic\images\">

oh, so you are using the type in the code to build an array of the folder where these are listed?

yes... in cf7 "type" was part of the result struct with a value of "dir" or "file" so you need to loop thru the returned struct and pick out the values with dir as type

So now in coldfusion 8, you can do it so much simpler huh??

much simpler yes...

need any more help
