bothering you again - just a quick one

[virva]

Ok, I'm trying not to bother you all the time... 😉

But please, tell me, can I make a directory out of the folder that is in web? I mean, the path would be an url? If not, then how could I get the filenames out from the folder and print them as a list on the page?

Listing files is easy...

This little script read's out all files starting with "case_style"
and puts them into a select-box:

<?
 /* what path? - put all filenames into array*/
    $liste = dir("./include");
/* read out the array - only display files starting with case_style_ */
    while ($entry=$liste->read()){
    if (substr($entry,0,11)=='case_style_') {
    /* who needs endings? cut off ending and case_style_!! */
        $entry2=substr($entry,11,-4);
        echo "<option value='$entry2'>$entry2</option>";}
    }
    $liste->close();
?>

Well... this didn't work. I should replace the './include' with an url. It gives me errors on lines

$liste = dir("./include"); and
while ($entry=$liste->read()){...

First on says "no such file or directory" and the other "Call to a member function on a non-object ..."

So... I guess I should do it some other way?

<?
 /* what path? - put all filenames into array*/
    $liste = dir("./include");
/* read out the array - only display files starting with case_style_ */
    while ($entry=$liste->read()){
    if (substr($entry,0,11)=='case_style_') {
    /* who needs endings? cut off ending and case_style_!! */
        $entry2=substr($entry,11,-4);
        echo "<option value='$entry2'>$entry2</option>";}
    }
    $liste->close();
?>
