Recommended Documentaion

Im new to Javascript….really new. I recently started my college work placement and have been asked to make a website using the DHTMLXTree to show folders and files within them. Im not totally sure how to use the DHTMLXTree (maybe your not either) but I thought that using the FSO and creating an array would at least get me the files within the folder.

This site is for a contracting company that wants to upload project files for other businesses to view if they are interested, these files also need to be downloadable.

If anyone can recommend any books or other documentation that could help get me started with this kind of project I would really appriciate it, thanks!

While an .hta extension will give you more permissions, it doesn't run on the IE browser, it has its own engine. With IE's proprietary language(s) you can do a lot, but javascript as a subject matter becomes moot. You'll be using VBscript and Jscript to do it. I wrote a program as you have described so I could find files and folders modified after the date last backed. Then I can find them easily, put them in a folder on the desktop and transfer them to disc without copying my entire works folder.

Success!
