arrays, files, and foreach

[nova3d]

In perl, when you read a directory, you can set it to a @, or array variable, and then run a foreach so you can list them all, or do whatever you like to them.

In PHP, when you open a directory, how do you set it to a array variable??

Thank you.

This should do what you want:

<ul>
<?
$dirname = "/path/to/whatever/";

if ($dir = @opendir("$dirpath")) {
while (($file = readdir($dir)) !== false) {
if ($file != "." && $file != "..") {
echo "<li><a href="$dirname/$file">$file</a>\n";
}
}
closedir($dir);
}
?>
</ul>
