Opendir on external directories?

[sir pannels]

Ok it seems open dir does not work with an external http reference, does anyone know of anyway round this?

I wish to list all the files in a dir that is on a remote http connection ...

I've scouted around but no luck, any links or info would be great

thanks

If the http address shows a file listing you can parse the HTML.

Yes true. However it has a defined index. Thanks though.

So anyone know a way round at all?

Why are you trying to get a file listing of a remore url?
If you could it would be a bit of a security risk.
