PHP script modification to make it a list instead of

[ajfmrf]

a bunch of stuff run together

Hi folks I found a small directory lister script.

<?php
$row = exec('dir',$output,$error);
while(list(,$row) = each($output)){
echo $row, "<BR>\n";
}
if($error){
echo "Error : $error<BR>\n";
exit;
}
?>

It lists files and folders all runinning to each other except for one single break.

Can this be modified to have one file/folder to each line in a list form?

I tried to add another <br> in it but I got errors each way I tried it.

Thanks,

Bud

Try this:

$dir = opendir("dir");
    
while($row = readdir($dir)) {
    echo $row."<BR>\n";
}

closedir($handler); 

[ajfmrf]

with that code

Warning: opendir(dir) [function.opendir]: failed to open dir: No such file or directory in ,,,,,,,,,,,/menu/php/blist.php on line 2

Warning: readdir() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in .........../menu/php/blist.php on line 4

The argument in the opendir() function is supposed to be the name of the directory you're trying to list. Since you had "dir" in the other script, I assumed that "dir" was the directory you're trying to list.

$dir = opendir("dir"); 

Replace it with the name that you're trying to list. If you're trying to list the parent directory, set the argument to "./".
