Dir of unix server sorted by file name

[Topshed]

Hi,

I have switched to a unix server from a windows one and my  dir.php now displays in date order which makes things very hard to find

 

Below is the code I use, can anyone tell me what to put, and where ? to make it sort by file name, or point me to a freeware script that has already invented the wheel so to speak.

 

<?php
function humansize($size) {
    $kb = 1024;         // Kilobyte
    $mb = 1024 * $kb;   // Megabyte
    $gb = 1024 * $mb;   // Gigabyte
    $tb = 1024 * $gb;   // Terabyte
    if($size < $kb) return $size."B";
    else if($size < $mb) return round($size/$kb,0)."KB";
    else if($size < $gb) return round($size/$mb,0)."MB";
    else if($size < $tb) return round($size/$gb,0)."GB";
    else return round($size/$tb,2)."TB";
}
$path= dirname($_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME']);
?>
<h3>Files in <?php print $path; ?>:</h3>
<ul>
  <?php
$d = dir($path);
$icon = '';
while (false !== ($entry = $d->read())) {
    if ( substr($entry, 0, 1)=='.' ) continue;
    $size = filesize($path.'/'.$entry);
    $humansize = humansize($size);
    $dotpos = strrpos($entry, '.');
    if ($dotpos) {
        $ext = substr($entry, $dotpos+1);
        if ($ext === 'jpeg' || $ext === 'gif' || $ext === 'png') {
            $icon = "<img src='$entry' style='width: 48px; height: auto; vertical-align: text-top;' alt='icon' title='$entry' />";
        }
    }
    print "<li><a href='$entry'>$entry</a> ($humansize) $icon</li>\n";
    $icon= '';
}
$d->close();
?>

 

Please help an old fellow who should know better

Regards

You already have a thread for this, where someone replied how you could get the files displayed in the order that you want them to be - http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/php-coding-help/switch-to-unix-causes-dir-php-problems/

Use glob() or scandir() which sort alphabetically. If their sorting does not suit, use one of the numerous array sorting functions or even go crazy and use your own sorting algoritm.

 

If you need help, after having a go, then show us where you're stuck at and we can assist.

Thank you for your replies

Sorry I knew I had posted it somewhere but I could not find it

My problem is I am not able to work out some of these command structures

It tried Glob and "Scandir" but with absolutely no effect

 

My latest efforts are with DLF,  a  system that uses GD2,  it works without but the output is scruffy

So I now have to get it called correcty

 

 

Thanks again
