Is there a way to return all the .html files in a folder?

[cooldude832]

I'm trying to find all the include files in a folder is there a way to some how read a folder and then return an array with all the file names as the array keys or associative keys? I only want to return files that are .html or .php not all files

[cooldude832]

Would this work?

$dir = "/subfolder";
$files = scandir($dir);
$i = 0;
foreach($files as $value)
{
$temp = explode(".",$value);
if ($temp[1] == ".html" || $temp[1] == ".php" || $temp[1] == ".htm")
{
$file[$i] = $value;
$i++;
}
}

It should work.

The only problem is if there is more than one '.' in the filename.. such as in a file called myfile.ini.php, which I've seen before.

You could use this, which will use the last value from the explode (whgich will be the filetype).

<?php
$dir = "/subfolder";
$files = scandir($dir);
$i = 0;
foreach($files as $value)
{
$temp = explode(".",$value);
if ((end($temp) == "html") || (end($temp) == "php") || (end($temp) == "htm"))
{
$file[$i] = $value;
$i++
}
}
?>

 

or this should work.. and be a bit neater. First set an array with the filtypes in, then search the array. If the filetype isn't in the array it's ignored.

<?php
$filetype = array('html', 'htm', 'php');
$dir = "/subfolder";
$files = scandir($dir);
$i = 0;
foreach($files as $value)
{
$temp = explode(".",$value);
if(array_search(end($temp), $filetype) != false)
{
$file[$i] = $value;
$i++
}
}
?>

Looks alright to me. Have you tried it? Dont forget that scandir() is a php 5 function. If you are running a version prior to that, you'll need to use opendir() and readdir().

i'm on 4.4 can you show me how to do it in 4 i always forget to check that on php.net  that idea sounds good for the reading extensions, event though i will be inputting the files it will still be a good idea

[GingerRobot]

Probably just as easy for you to read it off of the php.net website:

 

http://uk.php.net/readdir

[cooldude832]

How does this sound for a php-4 version?

<?php
$dir = "/subfolder";
if(is_dir($dir))
{
$files = opendir($dir);
$files = readdir($files);
$i = 0;
foreach($files as $value)
{
$temp = explode(".",$value);
if ((end($temp) == "html") || (end($temp) == "php") || (end($temp) == "htm"))
{
$file[$i] = $value;
$i++
}
}
}
?>

 

[Dragen]

looks fine to me

 

I'd still suggest storing the filetypes to check in an array, but it's up to you.

What you've got should work fine

[cooldude832]

I agree with you so i can add more file types easily and mod it for other types

How does this sound for a php-4 version?

<?php
$filetype = array('html', 'htm', 'php');
$dir = "/subfolder";
if(is_dir($dir))
{
$files = opendir($dir);
$files = readdir($files);
$i = 0;
foreach($files as $value)
{
$temp = explode(".",$value);
if(array_search(end($temp), $filetype) != false)
{
$file[$i] = $value;
$i++
}
}
}
?>

I much easier way, and a more originaized one imho:

 

<?php

$filetypes = array("htm", "html", "php");
$files = array();

foreach($filetypes as $type)
$files[$type] = glob("*.".$type);

?>

 

Orio.

try changing this:

$dir = "/subfolder";

to this:

$dir = "../subfolder";

[Orio]

Try using the script I provided above...

 

Orio.

now its saying not a dir the file its part of is an included file in the loaded doc, but the include is in the same folder as the actual page http://upperstraitscleanlake.org/About/index.php

[cooldude832]

no offense orio but your script is completly down river of the error

[Orio]

no offense orio but your script is completly down river of the error

What do you mean?

 

Orio.

[Dragen]

if it's in the same directory then use this:

$dir = "subfolder";

no leading slash

[cooldude832]

tried that and orio your talking about somethign that the code isn't getting to the file extension array isn't it i can't open the directory

[Dragen]

where is the file in relation to index_src.php?

[cooldude832]

okay from my root

 

Root -> About -> sources

index.php dir i'm trying to open

index_src.php

[Dragen]

$dir = dirname($_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]);

[cooldude832]

$thisdir = dirname($_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]);

echo "dir: ".$thisdir."<br/>";

 

returns:

dir: /About

[Dragen]

just found this, thanks to ACE:

getcwd

 

try this:

$dir = getcwd();
