For multiple folders, search in the download section for adir() replacements (keyword: adir). adir() will only work with a single folder, and you would have to take care of recursion. That is, you curse over and over again (re-curse) while you try to make things work <g>.
Seriously, recursion is a very powerful tool, but it is probably simpler to use ready-made tools from the download section.
