Removing extensions from directory listings

Recommended Posts

I modified the code provided by [b]shocker-z[/b] in [a href=\"http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=89695&st=0&p=375454&#entry375454\" target=\"_blank\"]directory listing problem[/a] for listing the contents of a directory so that it wouldn't show the file extensions.

[code]$path = "./";
$dir = opendir($path);
echo "<ul>\n";

while($file = readdir($dir))
{
if ($file != "." && $file != ".." && $file != ".php")
{
list ($name, $ext) = explode (".", $file);
echo "<li><a href = \"" .$path.$file. "\" target = \" _blank\"> ".$name." </a></li> \n";
}
}
echo "</ul>\n";
closedir($dir);[/code]

Anyone know how to make it show only folders, or to specific file types?

You could use the [a href=\"http://pt.php.net/manual/en/function.pathinfo.php\" target=\"_blank\"]pathinfo [/a]function.

From the manual:
[code]
<?php
$path_parts = pathinfo('/www/htdocs/index.html');

echo $path_parts['dirname'], "\n";
echo $path_parts['basename'], "\n";
echo $path_parts['extension'], "\n";
?>
[/code]
Would produce:

/www/htdocs
index.html
html

Thanks!

Now for what is probably a stupid question...

The opendir() function will only open a folder on my website, right? If I have two websites (hosted on different servers) can I list the contents in a folder located on one website on a page located on the other?
