I have a site, whereby people ar uploading text files to a specific folder pretty randomly. I need to have an administrative function, whereby I can view the contents of this folder, and have the names used as links to be able to open and view the contents of these over the web. How would I go about doing this? Is there an extension I could use in UD?

Save the address of the text file into the DB and use that as a URL link on the page.

the only problem with that is that i need to list the files, that are made on a counter, Ie the filename changes everytime, and they are uploaded through a CGI-script that wont let me put the name into a DB

I also found a tutorial about showing the directory sctructure in ASP.
Maybe it will be useful to you too
