You mean want to display images in sorted order by name? And what happened when you try it in your way?

[Zosden]

he's saying that some files dont exist. I would do a simple check if the file is null or something like that.

now with the filename that contain in the folder where some is missing or been deleted and i want to display when an action been perform (eg. "NEXT" or "PREVIOUS" button )..

if i use the for loop, when i click next or previous...it wont display the image.

need help on that..

thanks...hope Eranga and Zosden able to help me...or any one else..

In simple way, before do this,

ImageIcon("/image/flag" + i + ".gif")

validate that image is available in image file.
