Hey guys,
I'm very new to PHP so I apologize for any stupid mistakes or if I'm a little slow understanding things.
I have put together a small website and I wanted to use a PHP script to display a list of files and folders (and sub folders).
Basically a ghetto equivalent of an FTP page so I can apply CSS and make things look a little pretty.
I have the following code I found from Google that will display all of the files and folders, not perfect but it will work for now! However I can't seem to work out the syntax to make them a hyperlink.
Any help would be appreciated!
<?php
function getDirectory( $path = '.', $level = 0 ){
$ignore = array( 'cgi-bin', '.', '..' );
// Directories to ignore when listing output. Many hosts
// will deny PHP access to the cgi-bin.
$dh = @opendir( $path );
// Open the directory to the handle $dh
while( false !== ( $file = readdir( $dh ) ) ){
// Loop through the directory
if( !in_array( $file, $ignore ) ){
// Check that this file is not to be ignored
$spaces = str_repeat( ' ', ( $level * 4 ) );
// Just to add spacing to the list, to better
// show the directory tree.
if( is_dir( "$path/$file" ) ){
// Its a directory, so we need to keep reading down...
echo "<strong>$spaces $file</strong><br />";
getDirectory( "$path/$file", ($level+1) );
// Re-call this same function but on a new directory.
// this is what makes function recursive.
} else {
echo "$spaces $file<br />";
// Just print out the filename
}
}
}
closedir( $dh );
// Close the directory handle
}
?>
