Hello,

Does anyone know any good File Managers coding.

I have a website that has lots of pdf and other files that people need to downloads and I was thinking if there is a way to make it neat and create it into sections.

For example

+ Updates (as a folder)
Update 1 (pdf)
Update 2 (pdf)
Update 3 (pdf)

+ Safety Infomation (as a folder)
Safety Infomation 1 (pdf)
Safety Infomation 2 (pdf)


KEY
+ = drop down to give the PDFs

If the list of pdf files does not change very often and you do not have many of them,
then you can get away with just a simple 'tree menu' like this one .. http://www.dynamicdr...1/navigate1.htm

On the other hand if you have lots and more are being added every day then
you will need to create the menu dynamically using a server side script.

This would need to first index the folder where the pdf files are kept,
then using regex it can sort them out by name into lists of links to
be inserted automatically into the menu.
