How do I make this ASP code work?

I’m totally new to ASP so please be patient. I'm trying to find a code that’ll let me display the contents of a certain folder on my website as hyperlinks, and I'd enjoy it to be dynamic because I'll be uploading new files to the folder all the time. I found a code at brainjar.com that seems to do exactly what I want, but I can't get it to work.

I've copied the source code into a file I've named “power.asp” and changed <% ListFolderContents(Server.MapPath("/powe... %> in the “body” section of the html code, deleting the other two commands. I want the page to display the contents of a folder called “/powerpoint” which is an immediate subfolder of the folder that “power.asp” is in.

When I try to open the page, I get an error that the “path” is not found. No amount of fiddling on my part is helping.

Any help??

The starting “/” tells MapPath to map the path to the power point directory in the root of your website. So if you .asp file is in:

http://mysite.com/myapp/power.asp, MapPath will anticipate to find the powerpoint directory at mysite.com/powerpoint not mysite.com/myapp/powerpoint

or just Server.MapPath(”/powerpoint”)

If you did add the trailing slash, try placing a preceeding period like: ./powerpoint/

Alternately, you could send the full path to the MapPath() command… c:/somefolder/somesubfolder/etc/wherever…
