Hey,

My guess is that this is impossible for security reasons, but maybe
someone can think of a workaround. I want to have a Flash file
sitting in a directory with a bunch of xml files. I'd like to have a
splash screen that displays the "title" attribute from each of the
files. Not the filename, but an xml node that identifies the file
contents. When you pick a title from the splash screen, then it loads
for further use. The trouble is that I won't know the exact number of
files, or their exact names, at runtime. They will be named
"filename_xxxxxx.xml" where "xxxxxx" is a pseudorandom, unique hash
mark. How do I do this with Actionscript. I don't have any access to
a scripting language, (php, asp, cf, etc.) on the server side.

Any help would be appreciated. I'm thinking a workaround where I load
any file that starts with "filename" and ends with ".xml" in the
directory. But I don't even know how that will work, and it doesn't
seem scalable.
