scandir with two arrays

[ultraloveninja]

I am using scandir to scan two folders and then output the HTML.  I can get it to work for one directory (the thumbnails)  but I'm not sure how to get the other directory to output the array.

 

 

Here's my code:

 

<?php

$dir2 = 'basement-pics';
$scan2 = scandir($dir2);


$dir = 'basement-pics/thumbs/';
$scan = scandir($dir);

for ($i = 0; $i<count($scan); $i++) {

if ($scan[$i] != '.' && $scan[$i] != '..') {
echo '<a href="' . $scan2 . '"><img src="basement-pics/thumbs/' . $scan[$i]. '" /></a>';
}
};
?>

 

 

This is new ground for me so any help is greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

You probably want to use $scan2[$i] as well.

Ahhh...ok.

 

So, how does that work then?  Is it because $i is already in the for loop?

You'd have to read more about arrays to understand what you're doing before I can really explain how it works.

Ok.  I'll have to read up on that some more.  Thanks for your help tho!
