Most HTTP servers do not support directory listings at all. For the servers that do, there is no standard format for displayig directory listings, so if you are planning on parsing the listing, all I can say is good luck.

But I just need an example from any public site ( or even a non existant site ) of get and list dir. Regards, Robert.

Quote: put a file That is a little bit more involved. Call the Post() method that takes a TIdMultiPartDataStream instance as a parameter. You will have to instantiate a TIdMultiPartDataStream and add the file information to it before calling Post(). Quote: and actually receive a directory listing. That is the exact same as retreiving a file, except that you specify a folder name instead of a filename, and then you will have to parse the HTML that is returned into the TStream. Alternatively to providing a TStream, you can call the overloaded version of Get() that returns a String instead.
