[SOLVED] using glob()

[Lodius2000]

Hi

 

im trying to use glob to make an array of all files in a given directory but ignore other folders

 

can i do

 

glob('path/to/folder/*.*')

 

assuming there are no . characters in a the folder names this would return only files with any extension in the directory

 

is there a better way to do this?

That should work.  I mean, you could probably do something like:

 

foreach (glob('path/to/folder/*', GLOB_MARK) as $v) {

        if (substr($v, -1) === '/') {

                continue;

        }

        //do some work here

}

so could i take it further and do

 

foreach (glob('path/to/folder/*', GLOB_MARK) as $v) {

      foreach((substr($v, -1) === '/') as $dir) {

                unset($dir);//this would only unset the directories in the array

        }

        //print out remaining array elements in another foreach loop (array elements will be images)

}           

 

is that right?

you might wanna possibly do array_values() on your final array to reset the array keys.
