Here's the code:

// Print the menu
echo "<table class=\"contenttable\" style=\"width : 100%;\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\"><tr><td>&nbsp;</td></tr>\n";
foreach($_SESSION['menulite'] as $key => $url) {
	if (substr($url[0],0,1)!='.') {echo "<tr><td style=\"text-align : left;\">";}
	if ($_SESSION['album'] == $key)
		echo "<span style=\"padding-left : 15px;\"><a href=\"$scriptname?album=$key\" style=\"background-color:#333333; color:#CCCCCC;\">$url[0]</a></span>";
	else
		echo "<span style=\"padding-left : 15px;\"><a href=\"$scriptname?album=$key\">$url[0]</a></span>";
	if (key_exists($key + 1, $_SESSION['menulite'])) {
		$nextmenuitem = $_SESSION['menulite'][$key + 1];
		if (substr($nextmenuitem[0],0,1)=='.') {echo "<br />";} else {echo "</td></tr><tr><td>&nbsp;</td></tr>\n";}
	} else {
		echo "</td></tr>\n"; 
	}
}
echo "<tr><td>&nbsp;</td></tr><tr><td style=\"text-align : left;padding-left : 15px;\"><a href=\"$scriptname?exit=1\">Exit</a></td></tr>\n";
echo "</table>\n";

The output is

Root

Sub Folder
.Sub Sub Folder

How do I get rid of the . in the subsubfolder output? I can't figure it out for the life of me.

Many thanks,

dagon

ltrim($text, ".");

Dagon, thanks for the reply.

Where would I put: ltrim($nextmenuitem, "."); in this line:

 if (substr($nextmenuitem[0],0,1)=='.') {echo "<br />";} else {echo "</td></tr><tr><td>&nbsp;</td></tr>\n";}

I tried a few different spots and it didn't work.

Thanks for the help.

needs to be on $url[0] when you echo it.

No idea how to do that...

How do i just remove the .

Can you help with code, exactly how it should be displayed, i have no idea how to output that properly...

effour44

figured it out:
$outgoing2 = str_replace(".", ">", $url[0]);

thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

dagon

well that's not the answer to the question above, but i'm happy you have it solved.
