Directory Listing

[jroscoe]

I am no a Linux server and I would like to have a page that displays the contents of my directory structure for a particular directory. I want to show sub directories as well. For example, I want my page to look like this:

Directory
Sub Directory
Sub Directory
Sub Directory

This is for a navigation menu, so I don't need to show the files in the directories, as the directory names will be links to that directory. But, on that directories index page, I will want to show something like this;

Directory
files

Directory
files

Directory
files

Can someone please help me with this?

Thanks

Have a look to directory functions and also filesystem functions

Soemthing that can help u :

$d = dir("/etc");
echo "Handle: ".$d->handle."<br>\n";
echo "Path: ".$d->path."<br>\n";
while (false !== ($entry = $d->read())) {
    if (is_dir($entry)) echo $entry."<br>\n"; 
}
$d->close();

... thanks, this is my 100th posts and I become a senior member 😉 ... but still have a lot to learn😃

This is how I am trying to do my navigation menu, but I am only getting the first directory listing, and not the sub directories. any ideas?

<?php

$root_directory="/ra-apps/documentation/vorfa/Deliverables";
$directory_command = "find ./ -type d | sed 's/^.\///'|  grep -v 'CVS' | grep -v 'php' | egrep -v '^$'";

$output=array();

exec($directory_command,$output);

$files=array();
$d_s=array();
$last_d="";
$first_time_thru=true;
foreach($output as $line) {
	$file=basename($line);
	$directory=dirname($line);

	if ($directory != $last_d) {
		// if this is the first time thru, turn flag off,
		// else we need to add the previously generated
		// arrays to our master list
		if (!$first_time_thru) {
			array_push($d_s, 
				array($last_d => $files));
			$files=array();
		}
	}

	array_push($files, $file);
	$last_d=$directory;
	$first_time_thru=false;
}

ksort($d_s);

foreach($d_s as $line) {
	$directory=key($line);
	$files=$line[$directory];

	$_link_dir=$directory;

?>
<script>
fSubSubSub = insFld(fSubSub, gFld("<?php echo $directory; ?>", ""))
</script>
<?php
if (is_dir($directory)) {
?>
<script>
fSubSubSubSub = insFld(fSubSubSub, gFld("<?php echo $directory; ?>", ""))
</script>
<?
foreach ($files as $file) {
?>
<script>
insDoc(fSubSubSubSub, gLnk(0, "<?php echo $file;?>", "<?php echo "$directory/$file"; ?>"))
</script>
<?
}
} else {
foreach($files as $file) {
?>
<script>
insDoc(fSubSubSub, gLnk(0, "<?php echo $file;?>", "<?php echo "$directory/$file"; ?>"))
</script>
<?php
}
}
}

?>

Ok, well here is what I have now, but it's still not working right:

<?php

$root_directory="/ra-apps/documentation/vorfa/Deliverables";
$directory_command = "find ./ -type d | sed 's/^.\///'|  grep -v 'CVS' | grep -v 'php' | egrep -v '^$' | sort -r";

$lines=array();

exec($directory_command,$lines);

$last_line = "";
$dirpath = array();
foreach($lines as $line) {
	if (strcmp($last_line, $line)) { 
		$last_line = $line;
		array_push($dirpath,$last_line);
	}


$directories = split($line, "/");
rsort($dirpath);
	foreach($dirpath as $path) {

?>
<script>
fSubSubSub = insFld(fSubSub, gFld("<?php echo $path; ?>", ""))
</script>
<?
foreach($dirpath as $files) {
$files = split($files, "/");
?>
<script>
insDoc(fSubSubSub, gLnk(0, "<?php echo $path;?>", "<?php echo "$path"; ?>"))
</script>
<?php
}
}
}
?>
