<? 
$dir_main = "rezepte/$kat"; 
$dir = @opendir("$dir_main"); 

while (($file = readdir($dir)) !== false) { 
$file = ereg_replace(".php","",$file); 
print("<a href=\"index.php?page=$dir_main/$file\">$file</a><br>"); 
} 
closedir($dir); 
?>

Like this?

<? 
$dir_main = "rezepte/$kat"; 
$dir = @opendir("$dir_main"); 

while (($file = readdir($dir)) !== false) { 
if($file != "." || $file != "..") {
$file = ereg_replace(".php","",$file); 
print("<a href=\"index.php?page=$dir_main/$file\">$file</a><br>"); 
} 
}
closedir($dir); 
?>

The dots are:
. is this dir
.. is parent dir

Like in cd ..
or
cp /home/knutm/* .

Sorry, but doesn't work!

Got it!

Instead of

if($file != "." || $file != "..") {

use

if($file != "." && $file != "..") {

Then there are no dots!

thanks
