PStyles Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Hey guys, I'm very new to PHP so I apologize for any stupid mistakes or if I'm a little slow understanding things. I have put together a small website and I wanted to use a PHP script to display a list of files and folders (and sub folders). Basically a ghetto equivalent of an FTP page so I can apply CSS and make things look a little pretty. I have the following code I found from Google that will display all of the files and folders, not perfect but it will work for now! However I can't seem to work out the syntax to make them a hyperlink. Any help would be appreciated! <?php function getDirectory( $path = '.', $level = 0 ){ $ignore = array( 'cgi-bin', '.', '..' ); // Directories to ignore when listing output. Many hosts // will deny PHP access to the cgi-bin. $dh = @opendir( $path ); // Open the directory to the handle $dh while( false !== ( $file = readdir( $dh ) ) ){ // Loop through the directory if( !in_array( $file, $ignore ) ){ // Check that this file is not to be ignored $spaces = str_repeat( ' ', ( $level * 4 ) ); // Just to add spacing to the list, to better // show the directory tree. if( is_dir( "$path/$file" ) ){ // Its a directory, so we need to keep reading down... echo "<strong>$spaces $file</strong><br />"; getDirectory( "$path/$file", ($level+1) ); // Re-call this same function but on a new directory. // this is what makes function recursive. } else { echo "$spaces $file<br />"; // Just print out the filename } } } closedir( $dh ); // Close the directory handle } ?> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/227689-list-folders-and-files-as-hyperlinks/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

requinix Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 The simpler answer is Link text echo "$spaces $file "; Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/227689-list-folders-and-files-as-hyperlinks/#findComment-1174341 Share on other sites More sharing options...
