[SOLVED] list only folders

[shage]

I currently can only list all files and folders in a dir, i would like a list of folders only in desc order, but am lost on how to just list only folders, thank you

Check out the is_dir() function. Something like this should let you get directories into an array, and then you could sort them however you like:

<?php
$dir = 'path/to/dir/';
$folders = array();

// ...open your folder connection here and loop over contents

while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle)))
{
  if (is_dir($dir . $file))
  {
    // It's a directory, so add it to the array:
    $folders[] = $file;
  }
}

// ...finish whatever else you need and close your handle
?>

Warning: readdir(): supplied argument is not a valid Directory resource on Line 16

 

this is just to print out all the sites i have, not a ftp or anything, just to let me see the products we promote as each product has its own folder

while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle)))

 

that being line 16

Where do you define $handle?

[laffin]

u define the handle with opendir

 

such as

handle=opendir("path/to/list");
