Refresh a listbox to display new values

Royce Roy 2544 04-Sep-2013

Hi Guys

I'm filling out my text box with values Im grabbing on line and passing them to the listbox like so:

        // textBox1.Text = test.ToString();
        string[] names = result.Split('|');
        foreach (string name in names)
        {
            listBox1.Items.Add(name);
        }

However I'm trying to click on a folder and have the files displayed from there be shown in my listbox1. THis is what I've tried:

   using (var testy = new WebClient())
        {
            test = testy.DownloadString("http://server.foo.com/images/getDirectoryList.php?dir=test_folder");
            string[] names1 = test.Split('|');
            foreach (string name in names1)
            {
                listBox1.Items.Clear();
                listBox1.Items.Add(name);
                listBox1.Update();
            }
        }

But all that happens is that my listbox empties and doesn't get refreshed.
