Sorry for the noobie question, I am just a beginner still. I am trying to use the readdir function to echo back all the contents of a folder. The directory that I want to read back has 31 empty folders. I am able to get them to read back, but they are in a random order and there are two additional files at the top named "." and ".." -- any idea how to fix these? Here is my code and pictures:

$path = "c:/test/";

if(is_dir($path)) {

if($dir_handle = opendir($path)) {

while($filename = readdir($dir_handle)) {

echo "filename: {$filename}<br>";

}

closedir($dir_handle);

}

}

Hello,

I have a very basic html/css file where I am trying to display a grey background with a blue header, and on the left, top and right sides of the blue header I can't seem to get rid of the grey margin/padding.

<html>
<head>	
	<title>#</title>
	<style type="text/css">
		html {background: #dcd1cd;}
		div#top{position:relative; width:100%; height:390px; background: #1e6fb0; margin:0px; padding:0px;} 
	</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="top">
</div>
</body>
</html>

Hello! It is also my first time learning to program. I hope everything goes well for you.

Yes, that works now. Thanks!

I just tried that, and it still didn't give me the right result. It wrote out the math problem instead of solving it:

Basic Math: ((1 + 2 + 3)) * 4) / 2 – 5

Hello everyone. I am new here and I just started learning PHP; I apologize in advance for how stupid this question will seem to most of you I'm sure. I'm following a video guide and typing what the instructor says (I've checked it like 10 times) but for some reason he isn't getting an error and I am.

I am just trying to do simple arithmetic.

<html>
<head>
	<title>Numbers - Christopher</title>
</head>
<body>
	<?php
		$var1 = 3;
		$var2 = 4;
	?>

	Basic Math: <?php echo ((1 + 2 + $var1) * $var2) / 2 – 5; ?><br />

</body>
</html>

The answer that comes up on his screen is 7. On mine, it says this:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting ',' or ';' in C:\wamp\www\christopher\numbers.php on line 11. I'm sure there is something stupid that I am missing. Anyone care to help out the newbie ?
