Some great advice,

Thanks for sharing,

Keep up the good work

That said, I might have a possible solution for you. I was using two different operating systems for my developement and host. I kept a variable in the Application.cfm that defined the absolute path to the web root. I had one application file for the development environment and one for the live environment. The development.Application.cfm file had <cfset basePath = “/var/www/html” /> while the live.Application.cfm had <cfset basePath = “/home/mySite/public_html” />

Using this basePath variable you can save your absolute path using something like this:

<cfset folder = “#basePath#/path/to/my/images/” />
<cfdirectory directory=”#folder#” action=”list” name=”filelisting” />

Hope that works for you.

That’s a very nice script – just what I was looking for this morning. Apparently, I suck at Flash programming and your script came as the savior. Just one question though:

Since my code resides on two machines – my own computer where all the code is developed and the server where the website is actually hosted, would it not be easier to set the variable folder using a relative path rather than an absolute path??

I tried using a relative path for that variable and it doesn’t seem to work. What am I missing here??

Thanks in advance!
