need help with a FOR LOOP

[dynamitemedia]

i know this is simple but i cant seem to figure it out...

here is my code :
 

 

   For $s_idx = 1 To $search_things[0]
      If StringInStr(FileGetAttrib($search_root & $search_things[$s_idx]), 'D', 0, 1) Then
         $href = StringEncrypt(1, 'SandelPerieanu|' & StringLeft($search_root, StringInStr($search_root, '\', 0, -1) - 1) & '|' & $search_root & $search_things[$s_idx], $pass_encrypt)
         $s_dirs &= '<a class="padding1" href="folder-' & $href & '"><img align="middle" hspace="10" border=0 height="28px" width="28px" src="filefolder.png"><b>' & $search_things[$s_idx] & '</b></a><br>' & @CRLF
      Else
$files = $search_things[$s_idx]
Local $folder2check = $search_root
Local $vidType = "*.flv"
Local $FileList = _FileListToArray($folder2check , $vidType, $FLTA_FILES, True)


If @error Then
; display nothing
Else
For $i = 1 To $FileList[0]
  $okFiles = GetFileName($FileList[$i])
  ConsoleWrite("this is the files allowed : " & $okFiles  & @CRLF)
  $href = StringEncrypt(1, 'SandelPerieanu|' & $search_root & $okFiles, $pass_encrypt)
  $s_files &= '<a class="padding1" href="file-' & $href & '"><img align="middle" hspace="10" border=0 height="28px" width="28px" src="file.png"><b>' & $okFiles & '</b></a><br>' & @CRLF
Next
WEnd
EndIf
 EndIf
   Next

 Just trying to only show certain files NOT all file extension, no need to show  windows files etc...

 well it works BUT because of the for loop it is showing the files more than once,  i have been stuck on this for a few hours and not sure how else to get the correct files with out a for loop inside the other loop.  any ideas?

Obvisously only want to display the files once  this code starts about line 360 
 

   this code is from here:

Hey DynamiteMedia,

You could always add a stringInStr check to your code, prior to adding the data to the $s_Files var (I assume this is the one that's showing the files multiple times?)

Something like this

if StringInStr($s_files,$okfiles) = 0 then $s_files &= '<a class="padding1" href="file-' & $href & '"><img align="middle" hspace="10" border=0 height="28px" width="28px" src="file.png"><b>' & $okFiles & '</b></a><br>' & @CRLF

The above checks whether the filename is contained in the main string, and if it's not, Add it.

It's not the most sophisticated way of resolving the issue, But it's a quick fix that should help you achieve what you're trying to do.

Hope this helps
