    Can Flash do This??

    I'm trying to load images dynamically into Flash. I want to do something similar to this:

    http://www.flashloaded.com/thumbnailer.php

    But I want Flash to load any pictures saved in a certain file. If I add or delete pictures in the file - I want flash to update automatically.

    Any ideas??

    Thanks!

    if you want flash to list all the photos in a folder, you'll need a server-side script (asp,php,cfml,etc.) that passes that file list to flash

    OR

    you can have an xml file on your server that lists all the available photos. flash can access that list directly, convert the xml into an array, pull the images.

    the difference is you'll have to update the xml file whenever you make a change to the file list.
