Fixing code [F8]

[Giano]

Hi guys,

I know that it might appear as a strange request but if you could help me I'll appreciate it.
Now the point is that I needed a script which would read the content of a folder storing some images for creating a gallery. I've used the following php script to read the directory:

<?php
$dir = "../images/".$cartella."/";
//$dir = 'path/to/the/directory';
$numfiles = 0;
if (is_dir($dir)) {
if ($openDir = opendir($dir)) {
while (false !== ($file = readdir($openDir))) {
if ($file != '.' && $file != '..') {
if (is_file($dir . '/' . $file)) {
$f = explode('.', $file);
$ext = array_pop($f);
if ($ext == 'jpg') {
echo "&filename$numfiles=$file";
++$numfiles;
}
}
}
}
}
closedir($openDir);
}

?>

At this point I needed to pass a variable called 'cartella' from flash which created the stumble point. After different tries I've came up with this solution :

var lv = new LoadVars();
lv.onLoad = function(ok) {
if (ok) {
var i = 0;
while (this["filename"+i] != undefined) {
trace(this["filename"+i]);
++i;
}
} else {
displai.htmlText += "ERROR";
}
};

cartella = "mock";
lv.load("flash/read.php?cartella="+cartella, "POST");

Now, don't take me bad for this, it works but somehow I don't feel fully satisfied with it. Could you have a look to the AS and point me which would have been the right way (if any) to write the code? Especially in the 'load' bit!

Thanks for your time

add the variable to the LoadVars Object -

var lv = new LoadVars();
lv.cartella = "mock";
lv.sendAndLoad("flash/read.php", lv, "POST");

lv.onLoad = function(ok) { .... };

Thanks a lot man, I've tried using sendAndLoad but with no results obviously I was missing something.

Anyway thanks a lot

but with no results

try to declare the POST variable in php -

$cartella = $_POST['cartella'];
