Help not echoing files with a certain letter them

[tqla]

Hello. I am using this code to look in a directory and echo out the contents:

 

<?php
$mydir = "images/home/";
$d = dir($mydir);
while($entry = $d->read()) {
if ($entry!= "." && $entry!= "..") {
echo "'" . $entry . "': { caption: '' }," ;
}
}
$d->close();
?>

 

In the folder are file names like 1.jpg, 1t.jpg, 2.jpg, 2t.jpg, 3.jpg, 3t.jpg, and so on.

 

I only wish to echo out the files that do NOT have a "t" in their name. Just 1.jpg, 2.jpg, 3.jpg and so on.

 

Can somebody show me how to add this? Thanks

Does all files that have a 't' in them always in this format [some number here]t.jpg? If they are then you can do this:

<?php
$mydir = "images/home/";
$d = dir($mydir);
while($entry = $d->read()) {
if ($entry!= "." && $entry != ".." && substr($entry, -4, 1) != 't') {
echo "'" . $entry . "': { caption: '' }," ;
}
}
$d->close();
?>

if(!strpos($filename, 't')){

 

//dont contain t

 

}

i'm guessing the 't' represents 'thumbnail' perhaps?  you should normalize your directories meaning, have a directory for full-size images, and one for thumbs.  assuming this is the case.

using pathinfo() and breaking the files into an array of info like filename, extension type, filesieze, etc.. And then searching the arrays filename key to see if "t" is in the string might do it..

wildteen. thanks but I just tried your solution and the files with "t" still show up like this:

 

'1.jpg': { caption: '' },'10.jpg': { caption: '' },'10t.jpg': { caption: '' },'11.jpg': { caption: '' },'11t.jpg': { caption: '' },'12.jpg': { caption: '' }, and so on...

 

mrMarcus, yes "t" is for thumbnail. I was saving the seperate folder idea for if it can't be done through a bit a php code.

 

gerardcorr, where would I put the !strpos code? I tried it in the while loop and in the if statement but no go.

wildteen, your solution works! I just had to change it to

 

 substr($entry, -5, 1)  

 

Thanks everybody for your help too.

it can be done, yes, but in the future, normalization is the way to go to avoid headaches such as this.

 

if i were you, i'd take the time to make the changes now, but that's just me.

I hear you Marcus. It's just that I built an uploader that automatically creates a thumbnail and puts it in the same folder and I don't want to mess with that anymore. But I do agree.
