Here are a couple of URL's that might help you a bit:

A little excerpt:

apple said:
Folder Actions is a unique Mac OS X feature that allows scripts to be “attached” to folders and automatically executed whenever any or all of the following events occur:

* the attached folder is opened
* the window of the attached folder is closed
* the window of the attached folder is moved or resized
* items are placed into the attached folder
* items are removed from the attached folder
