PHP GLOB help?

[amwd07]

I have this simple code below which currently doen't work  ???

all I am trying to do is display Replace Image if files exist in the specific directory

not sure where I'm going wrong?

 

<?php
$dine = $_GET['dine_id'];
foreach (glob("{*.jpg,*.JPG,*.gif,*.GIF}",GLOB_BRACE) as $file) {
if(file_exists("/outlet/id/$dine/".$file)) {
echo "<span><a href=#>Replace Image</a></span>"; }}
?>

Sorry, what results are you expecting and what are you actually getting? Your question/problem is quite unclear.

Sorry I will try to explain clearer

$dine represents the venues id

 

each venue will have it own image library

I want to be able to check if any files exist in the folder if this comes back true

display Replace Image.

 

The replace image page shows all the files in specific directory

ie. outlet/id/185  //// all images show up in this directory but if there are none don't display the replace image link

[trq]

So, the result you are currently getting is what again?

[amwd07]

the replace image is not showing on the page so as far as I can see something must be broken in the script it is looking in the right directory but there are files in the directory so the replace image should be displayed

Yoiur call to glob looks in the current directory, this doesn't look right to me. Maybe something like...

 

<?php

$files = array();
$dine = $_GET['dine_id'];
$files = glob("/outlet/id/$dine/{*.jpg,*.JPG,*.gif,*.GIF}",GLOB_BRACE);
if (count($files)) {
  echo "<span><a href=#>Replace Image</a></span>";
}

?>

 

 

is more like what your after?
