[SOLVED] Glob, look for .JPG as well as .jpg

[jacko310592]

hello guys,

 

can anyone suggest a way the following Glob code can be altered to look for '.JPG' files as well as '.jpg' files

 

 

$filecount = count(glob("{$dirLocation}/*.jpg"));

 

 

thanks

A quick search of the manual for glob brought up a post by our very own Crayon Violent which indicates the glob regex supports basic alternation. It looks like you'd be looking for something like...

 

$filecount = count(glob("{$dirLocation}/*.{jpg,JPG,jpeg,JPEG}"));

NB: Untested.

that code looks asif it should do the job perfectly, but for some reason im just receiving the count of '0', so it seems to over-looking all the images.

 

 

but thanks for the response (Y)

<?php
$filecount = intval(`ls {$dirLocation}/ | grep -i '\.jpg' | wc -l`);

 

Edit: sorry, I had .txt when testing.

OOops, I forgot the most important part, you must include the second argument as GLOB_BRACE.

 

$filecount = count(glob("{$dirLocation}/*.{jpg,JPG,jpeg,JPEG}", GLOB_BRACE));
