readdir()

[searain]

readdir -- read entry from directory handle

file=readdir($handler);

will only give me the file name, how can I get the file name with the extension?

Thanks

I got the . file as the first reading, so it does return the extension of the file.

. means current dir
.. means one dir up

those two are always the first in a dir or ls command.

it doenst necisserally mean it gives the extention.
