Assign array values with a loop

[denoteone]

I am trying to loop through a directory and assign the file names and file sizes to an array like so.

 

$i = 0;
while (($file = readdir($dh)) !== false) {
if($file != '.' && $file != '..' && !is_dir($dir.$file)){
$images[file[$i]  => $file, file_size[$i]  => filesize($file) ];

}
$i++;
}

but this part of the code is breaking my page.

It's not entirely clear what you wish the output to be. But I'm guessing you want something like this...

 

$i = 0;
$images = array();
while (($file = readdir($dh)) !== false) {
   if($file != '.' && $file != '..' && !is_dir($dir.$file)){
      $images[] = array('name' => $file, 'size'  => filesize($file));
   }
   $i++;
}

now that I want to echo the first value of name in $images[]; but the following code is giving me this error. Notice: Undefined index: name

 

echo $images_new['name'][0];

had it backwards  echo $images_new[0]["name"];
