Counting Files in a DIR

I use the following code to list the files in a dir.

How can I count these items and print them

ie. Total Files in DIR (32)

$d = dir("path");
echo "Handle: ".$d->handle." \n";
echo "Path: ".$d->path." \n";

while($entry=$d->read()) {

echo "$entry. <br>\n";

}

$d->close();

The function is_file is of big help:

$d = dir(path);
$i=0;
echo "Handle: ".$d->handle." \n";
echo "Path: ".$d->path." \n";

while($entry=$d->read()) {
if(is_file($entry))$i++;
echo "$entry. \n";
}
print("Total Files in DIR ($i)");
$d->close();

Good luck
