liamloveslearning Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 Hi everyone, not sure if this is in the right board but im sure its php scripting what I need. A client of mine wants her users to be able to view a list of files uploaded to a certain directory in order for them to download as opposed to uploading them to the server and manually typing links for members to download, s what i need is a web based file browser which automatically pulls all of the files from the directory and lists them for the members to download, Sorry if this makes no sense but I cant find anything anywhere?

bundyxc Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 We were working on this earlier today, I believe. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php/topic,267895.0.html I'll assume you can implement that code? By the way, I don't know what happened in my last post on that thread. I C&P'd, and obviously it messed up my formatting.

RichardRotterdam Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 Take a look at glob It's prob the easiest way to show files in a certain directory Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/173079-client-side-server-browser/#findComment-912287 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonnoTheDev Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 Open a handle to the directory and loop through the files to display. If the directory contains sub-directories you require a recursive function. Checkout the examples on php.net http://uk3.php.net/opendir Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/173079-client-side-server-browser/#findComment-912298 Share on other sites More sharing options...
liamloveslearning Posted September 4, 2009 Author Share Posted September 4, 2009 Sorry im not too fluent with php and so a lot of this is going over my head, ive tried reading up on the glob() function but it doesnt seem to do anything when i implement it, where i have <?php foreach (glob("*.txt") as $filename) { echo "$filename size " . filesize($filename) . "\n"; } ?> how do i tell this script to show all files in /members directory?

liamloveslearning Posted September 4, 2009 Author Share Posted September 4, 2009 would this work? <?php $dir = "/members"; if (is_dir($dir)) { if ($dh = opendir($dir)) { while (($file = readdir($dh)) !== false) { echo "filename: $file : filetype: " . filetype($dir . $file) . "\n"; } closedir($dh); } } ?> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/173079-client-side-server-browser/#findComment-912320 Share on other sites More sharing options...
