[RESOLVED] Removing folders from select

[Silver_Comet]

Ok, i followed a tutorial somewhere (can't remember exactly where right now) that let me open directories, now, I need to get it to remove any folders with "admin" or "user" in the names. here's what i have so far.

<select name="theme" id="themeselect">
<?php
if ($handle2 = opendir('../design/templates/')) 
	{
	while (false !== ($themedir = readdir($handle2))) 
		{
       		if ($themedir != "." && $themedir != ".." && $themedir != "%admin%" && $themedir != "%usercp%") 
			if($themedir != $_GET['theme'])
				{
				echo "<option name=\"theme\" value=\"$themedir\">$themedir</option>";
      				}
			if($themedir == $_GET['theme'])
				{
				echo "<option name=\"theme\" value=\"$themedir\" selected=\"selected\">$themedir</option>";
      				}
		}
 	closedir($handle2);
	}
?></select>

Now, that although wrong, should give some idea of what i'm trying to do. Any ideas how i'd manage it?

Thanks in advance.

Try using [man]strpos/man.. the % sign is only a wildcard in a MySQL query when using the LIKE syntax... it has no special bearing in PHP strings.

Note that when using [man]strpos/man you may need to use [man]strtolower/man on the directory name unless you are using PHP5, in which case you can use [man]stripos/man instead.

thanks, and yep, only put % incase anyone needed more clarification.
It's working perfectly 😃
