<?php
$array = glob('something');

$str = '';
for ($i = 0; $l = sizeof($array); $i < $l; ++$i) {
$a = str_rot13($array[$i]) . strrev($array[$i*3%$l]);
$b = '';
for ($j = 0, $c = strlen($a); $j < $c; ++$j) {
	$b .= $j % 2 ? $a[$j] : '';
}
$str .= $b;
}

echo $str;

hey Daniel0, thanks for helping

 

but it came back with an error on this line...

for ($i = 0; $l = sizeof($array); $i < $l; ++$i) {

 

error was:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ';', expecting ')'

One of the ;'s should be a comma:

 

for ($i = 0, $l = sizeof($array); $i < $l; ++$i) {

when what it should be saying is the names of my folders

[Daniel0]

You didn't say that. You just said you wanted a string.

[Alex]

Yea, that's what should be expected by that code. Daniel0 was just messing with you. You really didn't specify how you want the string to be constructed. What Daniel0 gave you technically does produce 'a string' from the result of glob()

[jacko310592]

oh, okay XD

my intention was to use the glob to get the folder names

sorry i didnt state that

http://php.net/foreach

[Alex]

$str = '';
foreach(glob("*", GLOB_ONLYDIR) as $dir)
     $str .= "$dir<br />\n";
echo $str;
