Display folders and files

[rbvinc]

I need some help please. I am looking for sample code,

or links to do this. I want to display folders, and files in each

folder. I want to put 'href" for each file. These are pdf files.

Thank you for the help in advance.

 

Folder_A,

<a href='a.pdf'>a.pdf</a>

<a href='b.pdf'>b.pdf</a>

<a href='c.pdf'>c.pdf</a>

 

Folder_B

<a href='aa.pdf'>aa.pdf</a>

<a href='bb.pdf'>bb.pdf</a>

<a href='cc.pdf'>cc.pdf</a>

You will want to use glob:

 

foreach (glob("/path/to/folders/", GLOB_ONLYDIR) as $dir) {
    $folder = explode("/", $dir);
    $folder = $folder[count($folder)-1];
    echo $folder . "<br />";

    foreach (glob($dir . "/*.pdf", $file)) {
        $file = basename($file);
        echo "<a href='$file'>$file</a><br />";
    }
}

 

Is one way to do what you want.

Premiso,

Thank you for the reply. I am not familiar with php blobs.

Help me. I could not follow. I did the following code,

and my pdf files are under,

C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\newsa\testpdf

 

Error on line #8,

foreach (glob($dir . "/*.pdf", $file))

 

 

<?php

foreach (glob("/newsa/testpdf/", GLOB_ONLYDIR) as $dir)

{   

$folder = explode("/", $dir);   

$folder = $folder[count($folder)-1];   

echo $folder . "<br />";   

 

foreach (glob($dir . "/*.pdf", $file))

{     

$file = basename($file);       

echo "<a href='$file'>$file</a><br />";   

}

}

 

?>

 

 

 

 

Thank you.

Sorry,

typo error.

It should read as glob, not blob.

 

 

[premiso]

My mistake, I put the code in wrong:

 

foreach (glob($dir . "/*.pdf") as $file) 

 

Should get you correct results.

[rbvinc]

Sorry to bother,

I ran it, blank screen showing when I ran it, thought

I have two pdf files in that folder.

C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\newsa\testpdf

 

Error on this new line code,

foreach (glob($dir . "/*.pdf") as $file)

 

Please note, I have php version, PHP Version 4.3.11

 

Thank you,

[rbvinc]

Full code here,

 

 

<?php

 

foreach (glob("/newsa/testpdf/", GLOB_ONLYDIR) as $dir)

{   

$folder = explode("/", $dir);   

$folder = $folder[count($folder)-1];   

echo $folder . "<br />";   

 

foreach (glob($dir . "/*.pdf") as $file)

 

{     

$file = basename($file);       

echo "<a href='$file'>$file</a><br />";   

}

}

 

?>

What is the error message being returned?

[rbvinc]

Just blank screen. Nothing shows up.

No error messages trips. Even I refresh

the explorer, just comes shows blanks screen.

Thank you.

Add this to your script:

 

<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set("display_errors", 1);

foreach (glob("/newsa/testpdf/", GLOB_ONLYDIR) as $dir)
{   
    $folder = explode("/", $dir);   
    $folder = $folder[count($folder)-1];   
    echo $folder . "<br />";   

    foreach (glob($dir . "/*.pdf") as $file)
    {       
        $file = basename($file);       
        echo "<a href='$file'>$file</a><br />";   
    }
}

?>

 

See what the error says (if any).

[rbvinc]

My apology for your time,

 

I ran it, none shows up. Just blank white

screen, even with couple of refreshes.

Chances are the directory is wrong or empty. What is the full path to the directory from the root directory, try using that.

 

Basically what that means is that it never enters the foreach loop, which could be the above, no folders or wrong directory.

[rbvinc]

I am coping and pasting this from 'my computer'

(windows explorer). I have two pdf files under

'testpdf' folder.

 

C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\newsa\testpdf

 

Thank you sir,
