You're not able to do this with PHP alone. PHP is server side. To be able to do this you would have to use AJAX

currently i have the following, but it is showing the contents of the server, not the machine that is viewing the website:

 

<?php
$dir = "file:///c:/";
$dh = opendir($dir);
while (false !== ($filename = readdir($dh)))
{
if($filename!='.'&&$filename!='..')
    $files[] = $filename;
}
sort($files);
foreach($files as $value) echo "<a href='{$value}'>{$value}<br>";  

?>

Yes, like I said. PHP is a server side language. AJAX is the way to go to acomplish what you want to do
