reading files with a loop...

[groupvertical]

I am trying to read files from a certain directory make a link for the files it reads. If anyone has any idea of how this could be done it would be great. So far my code looks like this:

$directory ="/pelleleathers/pdf/$section/";
$currfile= "";
$mydirectory = "/home/groupvertical/www/pelleleathers/pdf/$section/";
$handle = opendir($mydirectory);
while ($currfile = readdir($handle))
{
//echo "<a href=\"$directory$currfile\">$currfile</a>";
echo "<br>";
}
closedir($handle);

$dir = 'mydir';
$dp = opendir($dir) or die("diropen failed");
$files = array();

while($file = readdir($dp))
if($file != "." || $file != "..")
$files[] = $file;

closedir($dp);

foreach($files as $value) {
printf("<a href=\"%1\$s\">%1\$s</a>", $value);
}

That should work, it creates the array $files of all the usable file names 🙂

That should work too, without an array... 🙂

<?php function directory() {
$handle=opendir(".");
while ($file = readdir($handle)) {
if ($file == "." || $file == "..") { } else { print "<a href=$file>$file</a><br>\n"; }
}
closedir($handle);

}
?>
<?
echo directory();
?>
