Can't seem to read the contents of other directories

[pneudralics]

I eventually want to make a section to edit a slideshow. I can't get it to read the subdirectories under the slideshow directory unless I put editslideshow.php and change the $search_dir = '.'

 

called from connect.php

SLIDESHOWPATH = "C:/wamp/www/slideshow/";

 

/includes/editslideshow.php

//Set directory
$search_dir = SLIDESHOWPATH;
$dp = opendir ($search_dir);
echo SLIDESHOWPATH;

//List directories
while ($item = readdir ($dp) ) {
if ( (is_dir ($item)) AND (substr($item, 0, 1) != '.') ) {
	echo "$item<br />\n";
}
}

rewinddir ($dp); //Reset pointer
