number of files in a directory

[Anon]

is there a possibilty to find out the number of files in a certain directory? If yes, is it also possible to find out the number of certain type of files (for example *.gif) ?

Thanks

Mark, you are too mean. <G>

Code I wrote:
<?
$stack = array ();
$handle=opendir('C:\michael\jrn');

while (false!==($file = readdir($handle))) {
if ($file != "." && $file != ".." && $file != "JrN Prj.jrn" && $file != "index.htm") {
array_push ($stack, $file);
}
}
closedir($handle);

rsort ($stack);
reset ($stack);
while (list ($key, $val) = each ($stack)) {
echo "<B>".$key."</B> <a href=/jrn/$val> E/N Journal Date $val\n <a><br>";
}
?>

this is a chucnk of code i use to ensure that uploaded files have unique filenames (never underestimate the muppetry of your users)

$d=dir($savedir);
while($entry=$d->read()) {
$n++;
}
$filename=$n."_".$filename;
