string readdir
(int dir_handle);Returns the filename of the next file from the directory. The filenames are not returned in any particular order.
Example 1. List all files in the current directory <?php $handle=opendir('.'); echo "Directory handle: $handle\n"; echo "Files:\n"; while ($file = readdir($handle)) { echo "$file\n"; } closedir($handle); ?> |
Note that readdir() will return the . and .. entries. If you don't want these, simply strip them out:
Example 2. List all files in the current directory and strip out . and .. <?php $handle=opendir('.'); while ($file = readdir($handle)) { if ($file != "." && $file != "..") { echo "$file\n"; } } closedir($handle); ?> |
