Description:
This is a Joomla component that allows administrators to display a list of
files located in a folder in the Joomla directory. This component offers the
ability to add any type of custom data to the table of filenames. There are
9 built-in meta data fields, and the admin can add any type of additional
field desired. For example, the admin may add a description field, or an
