Directorys

[Mod-Jay]

I'm trying to make a index page to list all files and directorys, that loads the folders into another page, as if you were on a page with no index. I have the following code that did work out so well but its sorta close to what i am trying to do.

 

<?php
$dir = "../toplist/";
$files = glob($dir . '*', GLOB_NOSORT);
foreach ($files as $file) 
{
	echo"<a href='$file'>$file</a><br>";
}
?>

Help Please?

Do you want it to also list files within subfolders too, for example

 

file1

file2

directory

(indent)file1

(indent)file2

(indent)file3

(indent)... etc

(indent)sub-directory

(indent)(indent)file1

(indent)(indent)file2

(indent)(indent)file3

(indent)(indent)... etc

file4

file5

...etc

 

If you do then you'll need to make a recursive function.

I dont know what that is, And yes i want it that way

[spiderwell]

a recursive function calls itself.

it works in this way, a function will open a folder, list all files and folders.

while listing, if current item is a folder, pass this folder back to the function and restart the list (this is actually a new list but becomes nested inside orgiinal list)

 

there are plenty of examples of such functions already written out there, just google something like 'file directory recursive php'
