is necessary).
This is false. Perhaps you're thinking of SS_L_ (secure socket layer) which
requires https?
SSI (server side include(s)) has nothing to do with SSL and will, of course,
run with 'plain'
http: as well (we do it on many of our webservers!).
So you might consider to add one or more
<!--#exec cgi="/cgi-bin/myscript.pl"-->
directives in your HTML page. The above directive will run 'myscript.pl' and
will be
replaced by its output.
HTH & kind greetings from Vienna,

Subject: List folder contents as array
Message-Id: <2006051113280516807-tony@heagrencom>
Hi all...
new to this so hoping you can point me in the right direction.
I need to interogate a folder on the server and have it's contents
returned as a delimited list that I can read into flash as an array
or as a set of variables.
The folder will contain mp3 files with all kinds of names,
the final "product" should look like this
tune1=blah.mp3&tune2=gogo.mp3&tune3=headhurts.mp3
all and any help much appreciated.

Tom Servo:

You do not need to pass 64 bit integers. Just pass them as NVs:
SV *my_sv = newSVnv((double) st.f_blocks).
This will even allow you pass values greather than 64 bit integers!
(Although I wouldn't assume that, in the case of file system sizes;
this would be a great restriction ;-).
Greetings, Ferry
