Hi im new here and i need help with the quotes of this code:
print("<tr><td><a href='#' onclick="document.getElementById('name').value = '$dirArray['index']';'>$dirArray[$index]</a></td>");
I got the code right but the quotes i can't seem to get it right.
Please help me with this 
Since you are using double quotes to delimit the string literal, you should escape double quotes within the string literal by prepending a backslash for each of them. Also, because you are interpolating this array element within the string, $dirArray['index'] should be $dirArray[index] (though the quotes should be used when it is placed outside of a string).
Also you can use {$dirArray['index']} when used within double quotes or heredoc syntax.
I did what you both said above this post but i still get the error.
print("<tr><td><a href='#' onclick='document.getElementById('name').value = '{$dirArray['index']}';'>{$dirArray['index']}</a></td>");
You opened onclick with double quote and tried to close with single. Switched to both single. try that.

Good observation, but the suggested solution is not correct.
In this case, a printf might be better:
printf('<tr><td><a href="#" onclick="document.getElementById(\'name\').value = \'%1$s\';">%1$s</a></td>',
htmlspecialchars($dirArray['index']));
