How do I load a list of files from a specified folder in javascript?
update
Actually is from a Xul application, but I think anything for a local html file will work.. (it's a standalone app). And are resource files (images) I'm talking about..
A:
If you're talking about JS in a browser and accessing files on the client's machine, you can't. Javascript has no access to the filesystem for security reasons.

What do you mean by "Load" them? Are they .js files or .css files that you want to add to the DOM of a webpage?

It's possible within a Firefox plug-in and has been for years. See the following page on MDC: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Code_snippets/File_I%2F%2FO
