Question

getFiles() returning folder on PC?

When I use this on the mac side Bridge CS5 it returns all the files in an array.

var poot=Folder("/eDesignArchive/eExtract/"+myJnum+mySFolder);
poot=Folder(poot.fsName);
var boot=poot.getFiles();
alert(boot);

obviously the string for the PC side is different on the link but I test if it exist and it is true.

Then I use the same geFiles() and it returns the folder instead of the files? I am not sure what I am doing wrong here.

On the PC Side I am using xp and its version CS4 Adobe Bridge. Is the syntax different?

Thanks BG.

It's my understand that getFiles() without a filter mask with get all files and subFolders on both Mac and PC. And returns an array on Both.

Michael you are right i checked the length of the array and everything was there it just wasn't flowing the text to a new line in the alert I was using. I do still have a problem. I am going to create a new post thank you.
