I have hundreds of CAD drawing files in binary format. Using the
strpos() function I can query embedded ASCII info from the CAD files. I
display the queried info along with an anchor element to the CAD file in
the web browser using a php script. Thus I can give the drawings
arbitrary file names but find the file I am looking for from the
description in the drawings title block. I can handle that aspect of
the project all right, the question is how to handle the directories. If
I create an anchor to the directories it drops out of the script and use
the browsers file viewing functionality. I think what I need is for the
php script to call itself and pass the name of the new directory so the
new directory can be queried and displayed.
Can I use an anchor element to pass info back to the self same php
script? If so how? I can't seem to find my way though this aspect of the
project.
Point me to a tutorial, give me a clue, or let me struggle on.
Thanks
