HI!

I know I should get a script but I wish to make my own.

It is very simple.

firstly I need away to find every folder within a given directory.

I also want to know how to list every file within a given directory with certain extensions... like .doc or .txt

I'm not sure about your first question, but here's the answer to your second

<?

// replace with your directory name
   if ($handle = opendir('dir_name/')) {

    while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) { 

       if ($file != "." && $file != "..") { 
          $extension = strrchr($file, ".doc"); // replace .doc with file extension

          if ($extension == strtolower(".doc")) { // replace .doc with file extension
              echo $file . "<br>";
          }

       }

     }

}

closedir($handle); 

?>

My first question was to list all the directories within a directory.

so it would find all the folders within /the_path/thisfolder

My second question was to LIST all the files within a given directory with a certain extension..

The is_dir() function is your friend.

if ($handle = opendir('/path/to/files')) {
  while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) { 
    if (is_dir($file)) {
      echo "$file\n";
    }
  }
}
