reading file directory

[Destramic]

hey guys im tyring to read my directory (whole of the web server)...i want to be able to put the file name and root into an array...im just wanting to know whats the best function i need to do this please?...thank you

can you give an example of how it will look once in the array, what different values you need.

are you just after a full path split at each level into the array. or are you after a listing of all folders and subfolders within your website?

ok this is what i have at the moment.

 

<?php

if ($handle = opendir('../')) 
{
    while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle)))
    {
        echo $file . "<br />";
    }

    closedir($handle);
}
?>

 

now in this loop it shows folders...but what i want to do is if the $file is a folder then open that up and read directory

you want to build a recursive function, bit like this one here
