Getting WebDAV content via Delphi and Indy 10 TIdHTTP

Question

Looking on the Delphi newsgroups, it appears the best way to GET content from a WebDAV server is to use the built in TIdHTTP.Get. While doing this, the result is HTML and I just want to make sure that this is the best way to retrieve data about the directories and files. If so, then I'll parse it out, but I just want to make sure there isn't a cleaner way that may have JUST the file/folder information for me... And no, as of now I am not looking to use any other components for this.

Answer 1

Answering my own: I think I figured it out - I did a PropFile with allprop and a depth of 1. That seems to give me everything in a current "directory" and I can drill down with that. Unless there is a nicer way (or if I am not using PropFind correctly), I will consider this closed. References that were helpful:
