[listfiles] problems

texte = I am running into weird problems with [listfiles], using the 2.0 CGI (although I just tried it with the 2.1b3 cgi and got the same result). I am trying to list a directory outside the Webstar directory, in fact in the system folder. First I tried an alias in the same folder as the tmpl file, but that didn't work-- webcat couldn't find the directory. I then tried something like [listfiles ../../../system folder/application folder/working directory/], which also failed. When I tried [listfiles ../../../system folder/application folder/], that worked, and I could see the folder working directory. I then renamed the directory and tried [listfiles ../../../system folder/application folder/x/], this failed too. I know I have the name of the directory right, I copied it from the finder.Why won't aliases work? Is there a path length limit for [listfiles]? Am I doing anything wrong? Is there any way to specify an absolute path (ie not relative to the webstar folder)?RegardsThomasThomas Wedderburn-Bisshop | Phone +61 2 9746 0700Development Manager | FAX +61 2 9751 6941Woomera Net Solutions |Sydney, Australia | Launching Internet Business
