Listing Certain Files

Anon

I have looked at manuals and sites but having the following problem.

I wish to list all of the PHP files and directories in a certain directory. THe aim is so create a database of the pages.

For example:

Listing Direcory: <ANY I CHOOSE>

images
cgi-bin
index.php
start.php
login.php

Many Thanks

Depending upon the server, set up a virtual directory. Many servers will then allow you to browse the folder (and explore the subfolders) if you configure the virtual appropriately.

But, again, it depends upon the server you're using. If you really need to do it yourself, check the dir object. It is an OO-style object that will let you read the directory (www.php.net/dir for more info).

Hope the following code snippet helps you out.

$d = dir(".");
while($entry=$d->read()) {
if(substr($entry,-4,4)== ".php" || is_dir($entry))
{
echo $entry." ";
}
}
$d->close();

Thats what I am looking for but now I have another problem, I am looking to use this to create script simlar t a file mangager, ie it lists the folders and create links to the same page but browsed to that folder. I am looking to pass a Query String $path which will contain the folder name. Here is my script:

<?
if (!$path){
$thepath = ".";
}else{
$thepath = "./$path/";
}
$d = dir("$thepath");
echo "";
while($entry=$d->read()) {
if(is_dir($entry))
{
echo "<img src=\"folder03.gif\" width=\"20\" height=\"20\" align=\"absmiddle\"> ";
echo "<a href=\"listpages.php?path=$entry\">$entry ";
}
}
$d->close();

I am running PHP 4 on win32 (soon to migrate tp linux) + Apache

When no path all is fine and list the folders in the current dir, if i click on a folder it will only show some of the folders in that dis (usually 2). I know that I will not be able to go any further in the directory structure at the minute but any help on this will be welcome
