[SOLVED] about the glob() (*Just Server problem)

[ted_chou12]

I cannot get the glob() function to work, i think that is because i dont understand it fully enough, can anyone tell me what does the star in the glob function means?
below is the example:
[code]
<?php
foreach (glob("*.txt") as $filename) {
  echo "$filename size " . filesize($filename) . "\n";
}
?>
[/code]
Thanks,Ted

the star is pattern matching. This will look for all .txt files in the directory.

but where do you put the path to your files?

okay, thankyou so much :D

when i inserted the glob() function, it just doesn't appear any files at all, does that mean my host server dont support it?

If your servers version of PHP is below 4.3.0 then it doesn't support the glob() function. If your version of PHP does support it, you're not using the function correctly. [url=http://www.php.net/glob]Check the manual[/url] for more examples.

i tried the exact script on two different servers, one appears file and my current one doesn't, i guess is my host's server problem.
thanks
