retrieving filenames from a folder

Recommended Posts

Is it possible to have php retrieve all the filenames in a folder and store the filenames in an array or something, so i could then store those in the database?

 

If there is a way to do this, could I get an example on how to achieve it?

@PC Nerd: if "stab in the dark" is the best you can do, it might be less confusing not to post a reply.

 

@Dekieon: there are a number of examples you can find in the online manual.  Stuff that is worth a look:

 

http://ca.php.net/manual/en/function.readdir.php

http://ca.php.net/manual/en/function.glob.php

 

and (probably the fwrite/fread commands).

 

Check the user-supplied notes in the manual. You'll probably find something that goes a long way to solving your coding problem.
