read directories inside a directory

[patchido]

 

 

i am getting this as a echo,

Directory handle: Resource id #2 Files: . ..

why?

 

<?
if ($handle = opendir('images')) {
    echo "Directory handle: $handle\n";
    echo "Files:\n";

    /* This is the correct way to loop over the directory. */
    while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))){
        if (is_dir($file)){
		echo "$file\n";
	}
    }

   

    closedir($handle);
}
?>

Because $handle is a resource.

 

Maybe you don't understand how those functions work?

ok, so how would i do to echo every directory inside that directory?

I prefer glob:

foreach(glob('images/*', GLOB_ONLYDIR) as $dir) {
   echo $dir;
}

basename()

 

foreach(glob('images/*', GLOB_ONLYDIR) as $dir) {
   echo basename($dir);
}
