Getting Contents Of Folder
I've made half of the code for a little "hosting" site for a few of the members of my site. Their files are uploaded to /login/<username>/
I'm now stuck as to how to show the contents of the folder in a page. I think the use of fopen() is needed, however the php website is a little confusing.

Getting And Using Contents In A Folder
I want to make a photogallery/slideshow with PHP... The 'gallery/slideshow' would show up inside a new window. basically, I just want links with possibility to go: - forward - back - to the very beginning - to the very end - away (close the window) Can I use PHP to determine the contents of the folder with the pictures and then use variables to determine which photo to show, and what URL's should be generates for the arrows? So each folder with a series of photographs would have one PHP file and the pictures themselves in them (it's not a problem to rename them). Should be simple enough, but I'm just starting out with PHP, and I'd like to have something working as soon as possible... the website I'm working on is about to launch soon (my first 'commercial' web project :) ), and this is about the only thing left that I still have to sort out how to do...
Deleting Folder And Contents With PHP
Im using this code to delete a folder using my script but it says Directory not empty. What code could i use that will delete the folder, subfolders, and all its contents. $currentdir = getcwd(); $directory="$currentdir/users/$_COOKIE[username]/albums/$_GET[albumname]"; rmdir($directory);
Folder Contents Function?
I'm looking for a function that puts the contents of a folder (the file names) into an array. Is there such a beast? For instance, if there is a folder off of my root called /tips/, and I want to list the files that are in it, such as tip1.txt, tip2.txt, etc.
Copy Entire Contents Of A Folder To Another
Situation: I am creating a folder based on input from a form and then creating an images folder underneath that -- that works great and I can read and write to the newly created folders AS LONG AS IT IS ONE FILE AT A TIME!!! What I would like to do: I would like to copy the contents of an entire folder over to one of the newly created folders ALL AT ONCE -- or in a loop -- which is what I am trying to do but keep getting denied. My code as it is now: if ($handle = opendir("$sourcedir")) { echo "Directory handle: $handle<br><br>"; echo "Files:<br><br>"; while (false !== ($files = readdir($handle))) { if ($files != "." && $files != "..") { if (!copy($files, $imagepath)) { echo "failed to copy $files into $imagepath<br><br>"; } } } closedir($handle); } all of the variables are working fine... it goes through the loop just fine -- I know this because it prints out the error for every file in the folder... it just won't copy the files over to the new folder while in this loop. Here is the beginning of the error messages: Directory handle: Resource id #2 Files: failed to copy step_c1.gif into /htdocs/www/schemes/adfasa/images failed to copy step_b1.gif into /htdocs/www/schemes/adfasa/images failed to copy step_a1.gif into /htdocs/www/schemes/adfasa/images by the way: adfasa is the folder name brought in by the form and images is the folder I create underneath it. Is this something that is possible to do in a loop? If so, what is wrong with this one. If not, how is something like this done? Of course since I know the files that are in the folder I want to copy from I could just go ahead and copy them ONE by ONE but that doesn't seem to be very efficient.
List Contents Of A Folder, Make List Of Links
Does anyone know how I can write a script that: - reads in all the files in a particular directory - displays the file names in a html list and makes a link of them: <ul> <li><a href="filelocation1">filename 1</li> <li><a href="filelocation2">filename 1</li> <li><a href="filelocation3">filename 1</li> </ul> etc.? So basically it creates a list of links with the contents in that directory, so you can download them from there.
Remove From $name (folder)/(folder)/[x]/ <-- If Exists To Just Get [x].
I'll be quite honest. I don't have the faintest idea how to do this, while I can do other php without a problem. Once I know how to go about it I'll be okay. It's two things I think? 1. see if there's a trailing slash and delete it. 2. Remove the preceding path to /x, the folders and slashes, and delete them. and then I have x. X by the way is the final folder in a website and this grabs it for me. <? $name = $REQUEST_URI; ?>

Getting The Contents Of A File.
Is it possible to get the contents of a file; display the contents in a textbox; and edit the contents of that file. Then click a button and change the contents to the new updated file. The reason I want to know this is because I have programmers on my site and I don't want them to have access to the FTP or cPanel. They will jus enter the name of the file, click submit, be able to edt and replace that file. All without FTP or cPanel.

File Get Contents - Timeout
I Have googled and founds lots of references and examples of stream_set_timeout for fsockopen, but none showing how you apply a timeout to file_get_contents which I need to use in this case. Can anyone give me a sample of how to set a timeout on file_get_contents, as I understand that it can be applied to all PHP streams? This does not timeout after 2 seconds: $url ="http://www.mydomain.com"; stream_set_timeout($contents, 2); $contents = file_get_contents($url, false); Print $contents;
File Get Contents() Error

Comparing Array Contents
i'm having a small problem with getting information into a database. Basically, i've got a form with some elements in it, such as: name phone address for example. I pass these values to a function which finds out whether the action is associateds with the form is to insert, update or delete info from/to the database (using an HTML "hidden" field.) The field names in my database are the same as in my form. (name, phone etc...). Using mysql_fetch-field, I have an array with the field names in it. I read the values passed from the form into an array called $values with the form fields as keys ? I would like to set the entry as 'NULL' for each field in which there is no data to enter. I thought the best way to do this was by comparing the contents of both arrays, and where there was a key in $values corresponding to the fieldname, somehow assign the contents of $values to that fieldname in the query.
File Get Contents .limitation?
See this simple file_get_contents code <?php $link= 'http://www.example.com' $content=file_get_contents($link); echo $content; ?> I tried the code with these links: 1. http://www.example.com (...worked OK. Also tried google.com, yahoo.com,... all OK.) 2. http://www.example.com/buy/chess (...$content captured an error page instead of the result) 3. http://www.example.com/chessmotifs (...$content returned nil, ... totally nothing. This is the one I need the code to work btw.) Could this be because the site (in this case cafepress) uses some sort of scripts to generate their sub-pages? If yes, is there an alternatif method to "file_get_contents" that allows a page to generate fully before capturing?
Size Of Variable Contents...
We are trying to debug a program that queries an oracle database and reads a LOB. Somewhere along the line from the db to the screen, an initial cr gets added. We can read out the LOB fine using Tcl/Tk, so we know the database data is correct. We now like to know when the additional char gets added, between reading the lob and displaying it.

Is There A Limit To Array Contents?
I'm building a database interface and plan to take the single-column results of a search and stick 'em into an array to pass them on to the next phase in the database search. They will be numeric, each value is probably no more than 8 characters, but the array may have as many as 500,000 values. I know i'm new to php, but this sounds like too many to me. Is there a limit (whether official, technical, or simply for user-friendly purposes) or a general guideline for how many values can be in an array? Here's kind of what I mean for clarification: $array[0] = "00000001"; $array[1] = "00000002"; $array[2] = "00000003"; ... $array[500000] = "00500001"; Will this work?
Checking Form Contents
I would like to verify the contents of a form before inserting the data into a mySQL database. How can I check the contents of the form and return the user to the form if they have not completed all the required fields(with the data they have entered intact). Only after the form is verified to contain all the mandatory data do I want to insert it into the database. In addition, it would be great if I could highlight the fields that are missing data. Currently, I have a php script handling the submission and insertion. Is it possible to make that submission conditional?
Reading File Contents
I am parsing a file delimited by |. For some reason the content is displayed to the browser properly - but the loop is consistenlty outputting "one more row" of just the titles. Perhaps I'm going about it completely wrong: <?php $filename = 'books.file' $fp = fopen("$filename", "r"); while (!feof ($fp)) { $contents[] = explode("|", fgets($fp, 4096)); } fclose ($fp); $loop=1; foreach ($contents as $row) { echo "<b>$loop</b> -------------------<br>"; echo "<b>Reviewer</b>: $row[0]<br>"; echo "<b>Date</b>: $row[1]<br>"; echo "<b>Title:</b> $row[2]<br>"; echo "<b>Author:</b> $row[3]<br>"; echo "<b>Rating:</b> $row[4]<br>"; echo "<b>Comments:</b> $row[5]<br><br>"; $loop++; } echo "<a href="bookreview.html">Insert a new book review</a>"; ?>
Downloading Contents Of A Website
What would be the best way to download the contents of a particular website and define all the content/html as a variable? I'm currently using fopen / fread right now but there is a problem, the script will stall when its reading a missing file (404). Is there a more efficient method besides using fopen / read? If not, is it possible to have the script error when there is a 404?
Check String Contents: Can Be Used As Var?
is there anyway to check if a string could be used a variable name. So return false if the first character isn't a letter or if it contains spaces etc. I started writing a function that would do a load of tests because I couldn't see any easier way of doing it: <? function is_valid_handle($str) { // determines if the string provided can be used as a handle // such as a php variable or html/css class if (strlen($str) > 255)) return false; if (strpos($str,' ')) return false; // incomplete, needs more tests return true; } ?> but as soon as i realised i would have to use range() to check all the characters were valid and all that i decided there must be an easier way. Do you guys know of one or am I just going to have to write it myself? It was about then I had a great idea maybe if you use the variable variable syntax you can see if it will return false but unfortunately it does this: <? $foo= Ƌvery @#bad variable name' $$foo = 'Hi!' // doesn't cause error echo $$foo; // outputs Hi! echo $5very @#bad variable name; // causes an error, obviously ?> Seems PHP will quite happily let you store data in a variable of whatever you like. I guess that's a nice feature. So...any ideas?
If File Contents Equals
I'm trying to create a script that will check the contents of the file and will display a certain message if it does equal the correct value. How would I go about checking a files contents? I tried if (readfile("$file1") == "144.173.19.121") { echo "your ip"; } else { echo "doesn't work";}

Reading Zip File Contents
say i have a zip file - test.zip - with a file - somefile.txt - in it, whose contents are as follows: this is a test when i try running the following script on the above zip file, i get everything i should be getting, save for the contents of somefile.txt (example output follows the script): <? $filename = 'test.zip' if (($temp = zip_open($filename))) { while ($entry = zip_read($temp)) if (preg_match('/.txt$/',zip_entry_name($entry))) { print "file name = '".zip_entry_name($entry)."' "; print "file size = '".zip_entry_filesize($entry)."' "; print "contents = '".zip_entry_read($entry)."' "; } zip_close($temp); } ?> the output is as follows: file name = 'somefile.txt' file size = ཊ' contents = '' the output i would like and expect is as follows: file name = 'somefile.txt' file size = ཊ' contents = 'this is a test'

PHP Directory Contents Displayer
I have the following script, which lists files within a specified web directory (as long as they are valid extension types). It works, but I would like the file names to be links (i.e. with hrefs) that allow you to open that file directly from the page. Purpose of the script is purely to display a list of photos within the directory, with links to view those photos. PHP is not my strong-point. Any suggestions would be very gratefully received... Here's the script.... //This function retrieves all files within a directory (non recursive) and outputs them onto the page //You can limit the type of files to retrieve, such as images only, as dictated by the file's extension function getfiles($dirname=".") { $pattern="(.jpg$)|(.png$)|(.jpeg$)|(.gif$)"; //valid image extensions $files = array(); if($handle = opendir($dirname)) { while(false !== ($file = readdir($handle))){ if(eregi($pattern, $file)) //if this file is a valid image echo "$file <br />"; } closedir($handle); } return($files); } //EXAMPLE USAGE: getfiles(); //List all image files within the directory the PHP script is in getfiles("/home/myserver/public_html/george"); //List all image files within a specific directory on the server

Determine Contents Of Listbox
How can I determine the values of a listbox, both unselected or selected after submitting the form: Code: <select name="sel1" size="10" multiple="multiple"> <? PHP code populates listbox ?> </select> Do I have to use Javascript to determine the contents, like in the pseudo code Javscript below. But how would you pass the Javascript return value to PHP? Code: function listBoxContents(sel1) { var selLength1 = sel1.length; var valuesPresent1 = new Array(sel1.length-1); var i; for(i=0; i<=selLength1-1; i++) { valuesPresent1[i]=sel1.options[i].valueOf(); } return valuesPresent1; }
