How to get subdirectory and file names in a folder

[dougmcc1]

If I have a 'Scripts' folder and a 'Another' folder, how can I get all of the names for the folders in 'Another' folder using a script in the 'Scripts' folder? How would I get the file names?

I've got a function that does it all, but i'll assume you dont need it unless you ask.

to reference to a folder below the one your in like this

public_html/scripts/myscript.php
public_html/another/

the paths from myscript.php is :

"../another"

so for example say there was test.php in the another folder and you wanted to include it you would do:

include("../another/test.php");
