List files in directory?

[sprugman]

Is there a way using this to get a list of the files in a directory? I have a folder of images and I'd like the server to tell the client app what they are. Only thing I've thought of is making an ajax request to the folder's directory listing page and parsing them out, but that seems less than ideal....

$.get("./directory/", function(data){
  $(data).find("td a").each(function(){
    if($(this).text().match(/\/$/)){ return; }
    console.log(this.href);
  });
});

Not ideal, but the best way to do it right now.
