scandir() only returns 1 file

[dstars5]

Hey guys,

 

I have been trying to figure out how to get all files in a folder into a PHP table.. However, when I use:

 

<?php 

print_r(scandir($dir));

?>

 

The array only has the first file in the directory.

 

I have noticed, however, that one out of the 6 folders I have tried with this actually worked.  The array contained every file inside.  I have no idea why it works on this one though.  

 

Can anyone help me out?

Showing us the contents of $dir for each of those six might help.  As displayed, we don't have any info.
