texte = Hi I have a folder of images that are named in the format... random_names-XXX.jpg Where XXX is a serial number for a record in a database I don't know what the 'random_names' bit is but it doesn't contain anything other than letters an underscores. The filename always ends in hyphen serial number .jpg When I pull a record from the database I want to do a listfiles on the image folder and see if one of them ends in the serial number. Using... [listfiles path=images&name=-[serialno].jpg&exact=f] [/listfiles] ...works fine when I have a matching image but I get an error message if there is no matching image file like... An unknown error occurred: FileNotFound -30.jpg I've tried hiding the listfiles inside a showif with another listfiles but it doesn't work, the error still shows... [showif [listfiles path=images&name=-[serialno].jpg&exact=f][isfile][/listfiles]=T] [listfiles path=images&name=-[serialno].jpg&exact=f]  [/listfiles] [/showif] ...I'm on WebDNA 6.0a on Mac OS X Server 10.4.11 What am I doing wrong here? Shouldn't [listfiles] just show nothing is it doesn't find a match? Paul Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
