how do i make it display files inside a folder?

ShawnD

here is what my code is, it doesn't work lol

<?php

$folder = "C:/HLServer/tfc/logs";
opendir ($folder);

while (is_file($folder."/".$file))
{
   echo $file."<br>";
} 

closedir ($folder);

?>

here is the error i get:
PHP Notice: Undefined variable: file in .....\readlogs.php on line 6 (it's talking about $file, i dont know how to get rid if this warning on any of my files)

PHP Warning: closedir(): supplied argument is not a valid Directory resource in ......\readlogs.php on line 11

i didn't pull this format out of my ass btw, i got it from a thread from a few weeks ago but none of the demos posted seem to work so it's fully valid that i post a new thread 🙂

Well,

you open the directory, but never assign the result to a variable
You're trying to close a string, not a driectory.
You never read the directory

See Example One on the [man]opendir[/man] manual page for working code that lists the files in a directory.

BUH IT WORKED!!!!!

Weed, what would i ever do without you?

<?php

$folder = "C:/HLServer/tfc/logs";
$open = opendir($folder);

while (($read = readdir($open)) !== FALSE)
{
   if (is_file($folder."/".$read)) 
   {
      echo $read."<br>";
   }
}

?>

does this code have a problem in it? i dont really know if it closes the directory it opened. it just sais that while reading the directory still returns true it will spring the name but i dont see anything saying where it closes the directory.
