texte = Hi,I thought I saw something earlier about a new tag or context called [isfile] or something like that, but I cannot find anything more about it in the html refs.I want to use this tag to check to see if a certain file exists in the images folder, and then do a [showif] based on the results.I've been using a separate 'images .db' database to store the names of all the image files I add to the images folder, but that's a hassle because it means I have to create a new record in the database with the name of every new image file I add.If I could just add new files without being required to add their names to a database, it would make life a whole lot easier ... :)Sincerely, Ken Grome ..... ken@iav.com http://usarea.net/home.html Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
