Load all files in local folder?

I am running a dynamic slideshow on a machine where the files are all on the local hdd. I have so far learned the basics of javascript, and also a little bit of loops, links, arrays, dom’s and functions but I am still lacking one thing.

[quote]

There is a timer object in javascript.
Set it to run a function at set intervals.
From the function check the images folder to find if any flash files beyond currently loaded exists, if yes load it, else load the first one

[/quote]

the reason for this is because the files in the “images” folder on the hdd are always changing and I need the slideshow to recognize that and basically mirror that folder.

this is all on a windows XP and/or MCE box and it is for a local slideshow only.

any help is greatly appreciated. thanks in advance.
